Call of Duty: WWII is a 2024 first-person shooter game developed by Sledgehammer Games and published 💸 by Activision. It was released worldwide on November 3, 2024 for PlayStation 4, Windows and Xbox One. It is the 💸 fourteenth main installment in the Call of Duty series and the first title in the series to be set primarily 💸 during World War II since Call of Duty: World at War in 2008.
The game's campaign is set in the European 💸 theatre and is centered around a squad in the 1st Infantry Division following their battles on the Western Front and 💸 set mainly in the historical events of Operation Overlord. The player controls Ronald "Red" Daniels, who has squadmates who can 💸 supply the player with extra ammunition, health, or grenades as well as a targeted grenade and target spotting; none of 💸 these are automatically replenished in the campaign. The multiplayer mode features map locations not seen in the campaign. The mode 💸 also features the new Divisions system, replacing the create-a-class system that previous games in the series used. A social hub, 💸 named Headquarters, was also implemented into the game, allowing for players to interact with each other.
Sledgehammer Games were interested in 💸 bringing the series back to World War II after developing their previous title, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (2014), which 💸 featured advanced movements and futuristic warfare technology. Studio head Michael Condrey stated that he was unsure if a World War 💸 II game would feel right after creating a futuristic title like Advanced Warfare, but the developers ultimately decided to create 💸 a game in this time period. They also chose to include atrocities and Nazi concentration camps in the campaign mode 💸 to deliver an authentic war story.
