Activision developer Infinity Ward has opened a new studio in Austin, Texas, which will work on the Call of Duty franchise.

"Infinity Ward has opened a brand new studio in Austin, TX," reads an advertisement from the developer.

"The studio will work on creating new and innovative experiences for Call of Duty and create state of the art technology to power them. Our studio provides a safe, trusting, and empowering environment to unleash your creativity and help make the extraordinary."

Infinity Ward was founded in 2002 as an Activision studio by Grant Collier, Jason West, and Vince Zampella. The studio is the original developer for the Call of Duty franchise.

A life-long and avid gamer, William D'Angelo was first introduced to VGChartz in 2007. After years of supporting the site, he was brought on in 2010 as a junior analyst, working his way up to lead analyst in 2012 and taking over the hardware estimates in 2017. He has expanded his involvement in the gaming community by producing content on his own YouTube channel and Twitch channel. You can contact the author on Twitter @TrunksWD.

How many developers do they need to make one IP's games?

I wish they'd make completely new IPs and maintain them with new studios.

I think it's safe to say that there will be more non-call of duty stuff coming out of Activision's developers in the next decade or so, because of the Microsoft acquisition. Microsoft has different needs than the stand alone Activision did.

MS possibly want them working on other IPs so by creating a new studio, it frees up others.
