It’s official, the next iteration in the Call of Duty franchise will be set in the late 1960s, during the Vietnam War. Rumors had been flying around all week about Call of Duty heading to Vietnam but it has been confirmed by CVG through a senior UK trade source that the title will be developed by Treyarch and a release date close to November this year could be a possibility.

The source also mentioned that the game’s development is on course and it takes particular influence from Platoon and Apocalypse Now. So those of you who skipped through the Russian airport level in Modern Warfare 2, can expect a similar dilemma i.e whether or not to play through the My Lai Massacre level, which, we can bet, will be featured in the game.
