As anticipation builds for Call of Duty’s 2026 release, early chatter from trusted sources has begun shaping expectations around the franchise’s next major entry.
With recent titles drawing mixed reactions, players are closely watching every rumor, hoping the series can strike the right balance between familiarity and evolution.
A new Modern Warfare 4 leak suggests Call of Duty’s 2026 entry may take a very familiar approach to multiplayer, according to claims from a well-known insider.

Early details indicate the game could heavily resemble a previous installment, raising concerns among players who were hoping for meaningful changes and long-requested feature returns.
According to the Modern Warfare 4 leak, leaker TheGhostOfHope claims the multiplayer currently mirrors Modern Warfare II in most areas, with only minor adjustments such as reduced ADS and slide penalties and the removal of perk charging.
Return of Heavy Visual Recoil
Reports also point to the return of heavy visual recoil, the possible reuse of the Platforms and Receivers weapon system, and the absence of classic features like Ninja and traditional red dots.
With Activision under pressure following a weaker Black Ops 7 and a crowded 2026 release window, these early reports have already sparked concerns across the Call of Duty community.
