Activision Unfazed by Battlefield 6's Hype, Insists Call of Duty Will Prevail

Activision expresses confidence in the enduring success of the Call of Duty franchise despite the heightened anticipation around Battlefield 6.

Activision, the powerhouse behind the iconic Call of Duty series, remains unshaken by the growing excitement surrounding Battlefield 6. The recently unveiled story campaign and multiplayer trailers for Battlefield 6 have generated significant buzz, even eclipsing the number of likes on the cinematic trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. With its modern setting and a long-awaited battle royale mode, Battlefield 6 seems to cater to the desires of first-person shooter enthusiasts.

Despite the anticipation for Battlefield 6, Activision has seemingly kept its cool. Sources claim the company isn’t overly concerned about potential competition from the new title, asserting that Call of Duty is ’too big to fail'.

In contrast, Call of Duty’s latest iterations, particularly the Black Ops 6 campaign, have been met with favorable reviews. However, Call of Duty: Warzone has faced declining player counts recently, making it vulnerable to Battlefield 6’s competing battle royale if it is executed effectively.

As the open beta for Battlefield 6 approaches on October 9, 2025, and the full release is set for October 10, enthusiasts are gearing up for what could be a thrilling Fall in the gaming world. Meanwhile, speculation around Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 continues, with an expected mid-November release.
