Call of Duty 7 set in Vietnam

Call of Duty 7 set in Vietnam

Feb 22, 2010


We’ve known for quite some time that the next title in Activision’s Call of Duty franchise, dubbed ‘Call of Duty 7′ has been in development by Treyarch and should be coming out sometime this year. While rumors have been circulating about the game’s setting, it seems that a Hollywood casting call may shed some light on just where Call of Duty 7 will take place. That’s right folks, you guessed it: Vietnam.

The ad states that Activision is seeking motion capture and voice-over work for a character named Frank Barnes in a “Call of Duty-related videogame.’ Frank Barnes is desribed as a hardened verteran of WWII part of an elite Vietnam unit: the Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group (SOG).

Activision has confirmed the release of Call of Duty 7 sometime in the later half of this year, but admits that they don’t expect it to sell as well as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. They have not yet confirmed the setting of the game, although you can pretty much take the casting call as hard evidence.

Treyarch developed Call of Duty 3 and Call of Duty: World at War, and is not the same studio who brought us Modern Warfare 1 and 2: Infinity Ward.
