Footage Emerges For Cancelled Neversoft Call of Duty Title

Call of Duty has long since fallen down the deep end with almost all the most recent titles being pretty meh, I mean Nicki Minaj really? Some could argue that Call of Duty Ghosts is where the series started falling down, though that was only because it was going up against the likes of Black ops and the original Modern Warfare series so it had to create a new story on par with that, which it didn’t. Ghosts was developed partly by Neversoft who originally made the Guitar Hero Games, so making a COD game was completely new to them but they did make an attempt in 2011 as footage from a cancelled COD project titled ‘Future Warfare’ from Neversoft has been revealed.

Neversoft’s Cancelled Call of Duty

User @mangafigurines on Twitter (Via DSOGaming), has shared footage of an unknown Call of Duty project titled NX1 “Future Warfare” which was being worked on before Modern Warfare 3. The footage shows off a mission that takes place on a moon base with Zero G, which shares some likeness to the space missions in Call of Duty Ghosts albeit that was on a space station rather than a moon base. Even the character name SPC Walker is the same as the Walker brothers in Call of Duty Ghosts Hesh and Logan.

Whilst Neversoft didn’t actually make the Campaign in Ghosts, Infinity Ward must have taken a fair bit of inspiration from this mission to create the space missions in Ghosts, and maybe even further with Infinite Warfare which despite being panned at reveal, turned out to have a brilliant campaign and surprisingly good and refreshing zombies as well.
