A former Infinity Ward lead animator has recently claimed that at one point, Activision pressured his team to develop a Call of Duty game about “Iran attacking Israel.”

Chance Glasco, an animator who co-founded Infinity Ward with the late Vince Zampella, took to X to reveal this. In a post on March 4, Glasco said that there was “a very awkward pressure from Activision” for the next CoD game to focus on a battle between Iran and Israel. He said this came after Respawn Entertainment’s formation, suggesting that the next CoD game, 2011’s Modern Warfare 3, would’ve addressed this conflict.
