Call of Duty 2024 Leaks – Activision Data Breach Reveals Mysterious Codename for Treyarch’s Next Installment and More!

While the news of a data breach is definitely not good for Activision, it looks it may have just revealed a crucial detail regarding the publisher’s future plans for Call of Duty franchise. Especially when it comes to an upcoming, new entry from Black Ops developer Treyarch Studios.

In case anyone missed keeping track of events, Treyarch is rumored to be working on next year’s Call of Duty title. The studio is extremely famous for giving an amazing experience to the players with their Black Ops games. Plus, the iconic modes featuring Zombies have also made their sub-series infinitely popular among the fans. While it’s almost certain that Treyarch is helming 2024’s project, it wasn’t clear what kind of direction it will focus in with this title, until now. Thanks to the data breach incident, now it seems like we have got a solid intel on the actual theme of the game.

Is Call of Duty 2024 going to be a full-fledged Zombies entry?

Going by the recent report related to Activision data breach, it ended up unleashing a lot of stuff. The leak revealed tons of details regarding the ongoing premium offering Modern Warfare II. Moreover, it also mentioned the codename for 2024’s game from Treyarch, which is Cerberus.

Now going deeper into the meaning of this word, it comes from the Greek mythology. Cerberus literally means a 3-headed dog that guards the entrance to the realm of the dead. Cerberus served Hades – the God of the Greek underworld. Its main objective was to prevent any living being from entering the world of the dead, and also to keep the dead from escaping. Now all of this isn’t something too difficult to understand, right?

The codename, in its actual meaning, is directly referencing the Zombies. And everyone knows how important the undead have been in Call of Duty Black Ops franchise. But the main question that arises after decoding the codename is: will 2024’s installment be fully based in the world of Zombies featuring a storyline only revolving around them?

It may or may not be the case. That’s because Black Ops titles generally feature modes and storylines related to the undead. However, what’s important to note in the aforementioned codename is that it’s solely focusing on Zombies. For now, everything should be taken with a grain of salt unless there comes an official word from the makers.
