If ever you wanted more proof that Activision just can’t get enough of the Call of Duty franchise, here it is. It now seems that two dedicated teams and a yearly sequel release isn’t enough for the publishers overactive CoD drive.

The tail end of a LA Times article discussing the sheer magnitude of Activision’s Modern Warfare 2 launch reveals that, in addition to Infinity Ward and Treyarch, a third mystery team has been signed to create yet another CoD release. Could Activision seriously be toying with the idea of releasing a semi-annual Call of Duty title? The option would allow them to offer three flavors of CoD; past, present, and future.

A source close to the matter believes that a massively multi-player version of the game is being considered as well. Call of Duty MMO anyone? The possibilities really are limitless considering Activision’s propensity to milk its franchises like a little kid trying to suck every last drop of their beverage through a straw until you finally scream out “STOP THAT!”

We’ve sent an email off to Activision requesting a comment and will definitely update you the moment we hear back.
