Next Call of Duty Game Rumored as Direct Sequel to Black Ops

The Official PlayStation Magazine has posted a new rumor for Call of Duty fans to ponder, claiming that the next Call of Duty will be a direct sequel to 2010′s Call of Duty: Black Ops. Following the every other year cycle, this would put Treyarch at the helm of the next Call of Duty title, and given the huge success of Black Ops, it certainly does seem like a possibility.

Next Call of Duty Game Rumored to be Direct Sequel to Black Ops

The Official PlayStation Magazine has posted a new rumor for Call of Duty fans to ponder, claiming that the next Call of Duty will be a direct sequel to 2010's Call of Duty: Black Ops. Following the every other year cycle, this would put Treyarch at the helm of the next Call of Duty title, and given the huge success of Black Ops, it certainly does seem like a possibility.

Before the release of Modern Warfare 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops was the best selling game of all time.

Now whether this is a common sense rumor or a whisper from someone on the inside, it's unclear if there is any creedence to the speculation. It would make sense though. What do you think Call of Duty fans? Black Ops 2? Or were you hoping for something else?

Oh this is a great idea, I loved Black Ops. I think its probably one of the best first person shooters of all time, hopefully Treyarch makes another and doesn’t try and change too much.

In all honesty I hate mw3. It has took a step backwards where as black ops took a step forward. In all honesty mw3 could have been dlc for mw2. Black ops 2 sounds lime a total winner. That is as long as they take the step back forward.

  arent u worried though that the same thing that happened with mw3 will happen with black ops 2?

I was wondering what was next for treyarch. What setting be for the new game? The Korean war? The only thing that makes sense is blops 2.
- Black_Napalm
  The Korean war took place in the 50′s and black ops took place in the late 60′s early 70′s. I was kind of hoping for something to do with Israel like the 6 day war or something.

I would love a new Black Ops, I’ve been doing some studying on it and it could very well have a sequel. At the end of the game you see Mason could of killed JFK, and in actual intel in the game it says Woods is still alive and a prisoner at Honoi (Which is a multiplayer map that has nothing to do with the campaign and is a POW prison) so those could be in the game. BLACK OPS 2!!!

  Woods = Price as a character so yeah he most likely is still alive ….. actually same with Reznov but thank god Bowman is no more I am not to fond of rappers in video games just saying…..

I will probably be flamed for this but treyarch makes the best COD games, infinity ward is a constant disappointment I already ditched MW3 and it’s over powered and unbalanced weapons.

Frank k/d doesnt matter I have a 1.34k/d in black ops and ive rapped people with 7.0 k/d. Its so easy to pretend to have a good k/d its ridiculous.
To tell if someoned good go by their prestige and time played.

As long as it isn’t shit like Black Ops was. Black ops had cool ideas, and horrible execution.

Why is k/d ratio even being brought up? I wish they would take it out of the game. I get tired of hearing how high someone’s k/d ratio is. That could mean you are too chicken shit to do anything but camp. I play maybe 20 hours a month. I enjoy the games and the fact that unlike campaign mode I never know where my opponent may be. Not everyone cares about k/d ratios! Mw3 sucks and is a total disappointment! The only down fall of black ops was the emblem creator. While some people made nice emblems, some chose to make pictures of animal porn or penis or vaginas. These people should be permanently banned. Flat out no tolerance for such immaturity in a video game.

Early prediction that Activision will label it as “most anticipates game in history” lmfo, people are slowly moving away from the game, kids can stay with cod don’t migrate lol

  People are definitely moving away from CoD which is why their last three games haven’t really sold much…

I bet BO2′s Zombies mode has a levelling system and you will have Dead Island to thank for that. If the hit detection is better than Blops, it should be a good game.

AKA zz I don’t think you know much of the facts because if I’m not mistaken COD 2 was the best selling game of its time and Black OPS is the best selling game of all time to this point. I want to say I totally agree with BigDaddyjay, there are a lot of immature people on Black OPS multiplayer especially adults. Making their emblems of animals having sex with humans , naked women, racial emblems and the list goes on. But you can’t blame it in the emblem creator because its the twisted, warped mind of the individuals that make them and the people that are suppose to be monitoring and investigating players who are reported for having offensive emblems. I am a huge COD fan the only that I didn’t like besides MW3 was COD3. There must be something about three’s here seems like we have a trend started. Power to COD2 and COD3 don’t fail me.

@medievil1 I hope I didnt leave the impression that the emblem creator was the problem. I agree the players are the problem. I couldn’t tell you how many times I have reported players for emblems or language. Granted it most likely does no good. I wish psn was set up more like xbl and you could instantly mute everyone that is not on your friends list. I hate people’s mouths more than anything. I have even heard a dad swear at his kids cause they walked in front of the tv. Maturity is a must not an option. People please don’t sit there with music on with your mic on it is disrespectful!!

I thought they were taking a break to make a new engine for next generation of consoles. This series is going to go down the drain since infinity ward studio left.

Black ops was a POS I see tons of people whinnIng about mw3 because they thought they can play it like BLOPS where they spay and pray. That kind of gameplay does not work for mw2 or mw3.
Don’t blame the game, but rather blame YOUR GAME!
Anyway BLOPS 2 will probably sh*tty like the like the last one but I will get the game Because I will be bored with mw3 by then.

Believe it or not I actually enjoyed the Black Ops storyline, much more than the MW storyline. The Modern Warfare 3 storyline was just so predictable, it’s crazy. I actually guessed what was gonna happen when the President was about to be “rescued”: Makarov was just walk out and shoot you, playing as the guy who was just introduced at the beginning of the level, whom you had no emotional attachment to. That’s was really annoys me in Call of Duty campaigns: when you play as a character who is basically a filler, just a stand in for no reason other than to be there and do this one thing and that’s that. At least in MW2 for the majority of the campaign you only played as one character, and I actually never did guess that Reznov was just in your head.
Which makes me pretty excited to see what happens in the sequel. I really don’t think that Reznov is dead, just in hiding. So I imagine this and the whole “burn notice” situation with Mason will probably happen.
Oh, and “ZOMBIES!”
