Although Ubisoft are finally letting Assassin's Creed catch its breath after years of being rolled out on a relentless annual schedule, Activision aren't applying the same treatment to Call of Duty, not by a long shot. Instead, according to a writeup in Games TM magazine, it's been strongly alluded to that we're getting a sequel to one of the worst-selling CODs of them all, Ghosts.

Since this initial find, the text presented in the magazine has been scrutinised multiple times, and the core of the sentiment appears to be that the mag's writers were simply looking to the future and speculating on which game was going to be next, rather than anything more concrete. Still, why Ghosts 2, as oppose to Advanced Warfare 2 or Modern Warfare 4? I'd say the premise behind Ghosts was awesome; that of a super-secret band of proficient soldiers, going off on a number of top secret, SEAL Team 6-style excursions, the problem only coming when we realised it was the same old 'shoot everything in your way' toss we'd had for years, alongside baring the burden of being the first COD on new hardware.

2016 is going to be a telling year for Call of Duty, as you can more than argue Black Ops III went off the deep end in terms of future tech plot lines, and if the Battlefield 5 rumour is true and we're heading back to WWI with one of the most prolific shooters on the market, where does that leave Call of Duty, and Infinity Ward in particular?

Are there any other E3 rumours we've missed off? Let us know in the comments what you're most excited for!
