Timeline to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare release: It's nearing the time when 'people' leak images, information, spark rumours & studios release information about the next 'big thing' aka the next Call of Duty.
April, 20, 2013 - GDC 2014 - SHGames shows in-game render, and speaks about CoD: 2014 (?)
At the GDC 2014 event in San Francisco, SHgames shows the audience an in-game render for a split second without there being enough time for anyone to take a photo other than the one listed above.
SHgames also says it will be there "most ambitious, most creative game we’ve ever made.”
Read Charlie Intel's article. Read the GameSpot article here.
From the article:
Many long time time Call of Duty fans immediately recognized the face as none other than MW2′s Sergeant Foley (voiced by Keith David). It is important to note that SHgames confirmed the image shown at GDC 2014 was an actual in-game image from the next Call of Duty title.
According to a post on NeoGaf and Bubblews.com, the upcoming Call of Duty will be titled 'Call of Duty: Patriots'.

Other reports claim that online companies have received E-Mails in regards to being sent advertisements and ad banners in May. This could mean it will be released in the next few days.
Some information has leaked out of Activision regarding their biggest franchise - Call of Duty.
Our source (who wishes to remain anonymous - for obvious reasons) has given us a small bit of information regarding the upcoming Call of Duty game for 2014. The information published here will be available from Activision before E3 this year, as they have an announcement to make in May.
Read on for all the information:
- The official name of the game is Call of Duty: Patriots.
- The project name is 'BlackSmith' - Smith Black being ONE of the main characters in the game.
- The game is being developed by Sledgehammer - Who intend to do a 3-part series.
- The setting is going back to the roots of CoD and will be set in a fictional version of The Great War (World War I).
- There will be more of a 'Fantasy' element to the game - One example we have been given is the fact that one of the main characters is from a previous CoD game, but in an alternate reality.
- There will be a multiplayer mode in the game as well as a single player mode. The single player mode can be done via Co-Op. However, this can only be done online. There is no Split Screen.
- The main campaign is expected to last just 6 hours. However, there will be TWO Sub-Campaigns. We aren't sure what exactly this means.
- The game will only be developed for PC, PS4 and Xbox One - There is no chance of a WiiU or last-gen version.
- The release data is currently scheduled for November 14th 2014.
So, there you have it. One bit of information our source couldn't confirm was which engine the game will be developed in - although it is certain it will not be Unreal 4.
Just remember, this information is what will be announced by Activision before E3 this year. Enjoy your early present.

The official reveal of the next Call of Duty is imminent. We've seen a screenshot out of Game Informer and have a countdown set to go off Sunday morning. But let's not wait for that.
Word has it via an untitled, "leaked" audio recording that actor Kevin Spacey will play a role in the Sledgehammer-developed title. Variety connected the dots using a visualizer on the audio file to come up with an image that looks like a man holding a weapon. His involvement has since been confirmed. And going off that VICE-produced video about private military companies released earlier today, we know the game's general theme.
Through a trusted source, Destructoid has learned the new Call of Duty, subtitled Advanced Warfare, revolves around a soldier of fortune group run by Spacey's character that has turned on the United States government. As shown in the leaked media attached to this post, players will wear exosuits to jump super high, scale buildings, and cloak themselves. Also, hoverbikes.

If you're a Call of Duty: fan, you would know that in previous games before almost every campaign mission, there would be a voice that talks before you head into the next mission about said mission.
New details from the GameInformer digital magazine are starting to arise. Readers have sent us emails and posted in our comment sections about new details they are finding, and we have found some interesting details.
The first thing is that the campaign mode will not feature the ‘disembodied voices talking over maps’ before every mission. This has been in every CoD game before, where a voice talks about the next mission, and then you go into the mission. The game will feature a immersive story with fully rendered CG cutscenes.
