Call of Duty’s next game gets a cryptic ‘Camera 004’ live tease

Activision has started teasing the next Call of Duty with a strange live broadcast titled “Camera 004 | LIVE,” showing what looks like a fixed security feed from a street in South Korea. The stream went live today, May 28, and is running on the series’ official channels, strongly suggesting a reveal window is close.

The title choice isn’t subtle. Several outlets and community watchers have read “Camera 004” as a nod to Modern Warfare 4, and the South Korean imagery lines up with long-circulating chatter about the campaign’s setting. For now, though, the only thing that’s concrete is the live feed itself. You can read a concise breakdown of the stream’s launch in Inven Global’s report.

Why fans think this points to Modern Warfare 4

Infinity Ward recently said it’s making “the definitive Modern Warfare,” which effectively confirmed the sub-series is up next without locking a final name. That statement arrived last week alongside a short studio video from the new leadership team, and it set the stage for exactly this kind of teaser campaign. For context on that confirmation and how the studio is framing the project, see TechRadar’s write-up.

Today’s stream feels like a classic Call of Duty slow-burn: minimal text, a single, purposely mundane shot, and just enough detail for the community to start connecting dots. If the camera location is deliberate, Korea would be a fresh backdrop for the series and a clear tonal marker for where this campaign wants to go.

What’s missing so far: a title card, platforms, and a reveal date. Until Activision or Infinity Ward spells it out, label “MW4” talk as educated expectation rather than official branding. That said, modern CoD marketing tends to escalate quickly once the first tease lands, so a full announcement shouldn’t be far off.

We’ll update when the stream flips from surveillance curiosity to an actual reveal, or if Activision posts the first trailer. For now, keep an eye on that live feed and expect the next drop to answer the big questions the teaser is deliberately dodging.
