Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare takes a cue from Black Ops 2 with its sci fi ordinance, except this time it isn’t just the guns the player wields that makes them feel like they’re soldiers from the future. The protagonist in this game is kitted out with an exo-skeleton – a steel frame clasping their limbs and spine that looks like the rig that Matt Damon was wearing in Elysium – that endows them with superhuman abilities. They’re faster, tougher and able to jump incredible heights and distances using something called the ‘boost’ mechanic.
Some of the sci-fi weapons and equipment in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare are on display in a new trailer from Sledgehammer’s upcoming futuristic installment in the military shooter series. The clip features Sledgehammer cofounders Glen Schofield and Michael Condrey describing how tech such as the exoskeleton redefine gameplay.
Here’s a new trailer from Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare with a behind the scenes look at the story in the upcoming military shooter sequel. As Activision puts it:
“Three years of development went into crafting the world of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Sledgehammer Games Creative Director Bret Robbins discusses how research and technology come together to elevate the storytelling experience.”
