Call of Duty: Vanguard got its first extended trailer today and a release date of November 5. The announcement comes as publisher Activision Blizzard faces an unprecedented lawsuit by California state regulators alleging years of workplace misconduct and discirimiation.
The trailer for the latest game in the annual blockbuster series showed a diverse cast of soldiers—men and women—fighting across every front in World War II from Western Europe to the Pacific Ocean. “Experience World War II and the creation of Special Forces through the eyes of 4 multinational heroes,” the publisher tweeted.
On the multiplayer side, Vanguard will feature 16 core maps and four maps for a new Champion Hill game mode. It will also have cross-play and cross-progression and a Zombies mode developed by fellow Call of Duty studio Treyarch. Vanguard will also be integrated into Warzone as well with the free-to-play battle royale getting a new map and weapons around the same time the new game launches.
Call of Duty: Vanguard was first officially announced earlier this week with a short teaser trailer surveying the wreckage of several WWII battlefields. Prior to that, details like the name Vanguard, a WWII setting, and Sledgehammer Games leading development on the game, leaked online and in various news reports. As with last year’s Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, players were invited to learn more about the new shooter in Warzone first by completing a mission called Battle of Verdansk that went live earlier today.
