Call Of Duty 4 Box Art

In the earnings call Activision Publishing President and CEO Mike Griffith quoted:

"For Call of Duty, we're bringing the intensity of the recent Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare title to yet a new military theater to engage our significantly larger user base which nearly doubled last year"

The series, which initially took shape on PC and then on to other consoles, is now being made available on 6 platforms namely PC, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii and Nintendo DS. In the same announcement Griffith also confirmed that COD 5 would be set in a new military theater. And this suggests that like Modern Warfare this title too will deviate from the usual World War II settings ubiquitous to other titles in this franchise.
