Infinity Ward Job Listing Points to Call of Duty 2019 Single Player Campaign

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 from Treyarch is set to be the next entry in the popular Call of Duty franchise. However, this has not stopped the community from already beginning to speculate on what the 2019 Call of Duty title will be and what it could possibly entail, as Infinity Ward will be looking to bounce back from what was a not very well received entry into the franchise their last time around in Infinite Warfare. 

Leaks have pointed to Infinity Ward returning to its golden child of a series in Modern Warfare in 2019 with Modern Warfare 4 being the rumored game being developed currently. While no substantial evidence regarding what the 2019 entry in the first person shooter franchise has been announced or confirmed, a new job listing by Infinity Ward suggests that the next entry may have a single player campaign. 

According to a report by Dexerto, Infinity Ward has posted a job listing for a Narrative Scripter on Linkedin that calls for an individual that has "a cinematic ear for dialogue pacing, a strong desire to bring life to game characters through naturalistic and cinematic implementation of vocal performance and a broad understanding of both multiplayer and single player game design."

Treyarch gathered some mixed reactions when it was announced that Black Ops 4 would be the first entry in the Call of Duty franchise to not have a single player campaign mode, as the upcoming entry would focus on the multiplayer aspect with a traditional online mode, a battle royale mode called Blackout and a zombies mode. 

While the majority of Call of Duty fans primarily play the multiplayer aspects on the titles in the franchise in recent years, the decision by Treyarch to leave out a single player campaign was met with some criticism from parts of the community. 

However, those not pleased with the exclusion of a single player experience in Black Ops 4 may be able to return to their favored game mode in 2019 with the next title from Infinity Ward that could possibly be the highly anticipated Modern Warfare 4 entry.
