This year's E3 Expo in Los Angeles California is approaching quickly. The videogame convention will be held June 7-9 and rumors have already surfaced about the products that will be showcased at the event. A significant amount of buzz has surrounded Activision's newest Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. In what is undoubtedly one of the largest information leaks ever, the game's storyline and game details broke on Kotaku.
According to Kotaku, the new game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be set in multiple cities around the world including New York, London, and Paris and is being developed by Infinity Ward studios and Sledgehammer Gamers.
In addition to the retail game, Activision is expected to also release DLC content packs for Modern Warfare 3. The company has a successful track record with post release DLC content. To support Call of Duty Black Ops, they launched two map packs -- Black Ops First Strike and Black Ops Escalation. First Strike saw record success with 1.4 million downloads in the first 24 hours on Xbox LIVE.
"Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 has a very high bar that has been set. We believe this year's game will result in the best Call of Duty experience we have created to date. [Gamers should be excited with the] creative excellence and sheer scale of the game we are making," said Activison Blizzard's CEO Bobby Kotick.
Activision has also announced the release of an online platform specifically made to support Call of Duty. The new platform will offer new social interaction and an enhanced online multiplayer experience for the Call of Duty online community.
