Call of Duty devs could finally be adding a custom map creator tool

As a long-time gamer who’s seen the rise and fall of many gaming titans, I must say that the potential introduction of a custom map creator tool for Call of Duty is nothing short of exhilarating! It’s like watching Fortnite’s success story unfold before my eyes, now being mirrored in the world of Call of Duty.


Compared to Call of Duty, Fortnite has faced numerous challenges throughout its journey. However, it’s undeniable that Fortnite’s departure from the traditional battle royale format offers a valuable lesson for future game development.

Over time, the game progressed beyond its initial humorous cartoon shooter format, introducing Creative Mode and an update to Unreal Engine 5, enabling players to construct entire universes using custom tools. This development has maintained a consistent player base over the years, much like how modding communities have sustained interest in titles such as Skyrim in the past.

Currently, it seems like Call of Duty is learning from its peers, with rumors suggesting a collaboration between Infinity Ward and Treyarch. The goal? To develop a user-friendly map creation tool for upcoming games, allowing players to customize their own maps.

Call of Duty studios reportedly working on a custom map creator

According to the source “BobNetworkUk,” who has recently shared insights about potential issues with Verdansk and the possibility of Modern Warfare 4 facing significant problems, it appears that Treyarch and Infinity Ward’s Polish team are collaborating on a custom map creation tool.

As a passionate enthusiast, I can’t help but share my excitement about this amazing opportunity! It seems that we, the fans, might soon have the chance to create our very own maps, thanks to an innovative tool in development. This exciting prospect comes hot on the heels of Activision making public the intricate details about how Caldera was brought to life.

Previously, data-sharing by Activision ignited curiosity about creating personalized Warzone points of interest, similar to Fortnite’s creation of ‘The Block’. However, a recent update indicates that players might have the opportunity to design their own multiplayer battlefields instead.

Reports indicate that Poland and Treyarch might be creating a tool for Call of Duty that allows users to make their own maps, although the exact launch date and the specific titles it will work with have yet to be disclosed.

It’s unclear if the innovative mapping tool is meant for Black Ops 6 or another Call of Duty title; given the popularity of custom maps in Fortnite, introducing similar features to Call of Duty could lead to great success.

The announcement of this news has sparked widespread criticism, as it has led to the center of a significant uproar. Just days ago, Activision sent a legal notice, demanding the halt of release for the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer remastered mod, which was scheduled to launch this weekend.
