Despite having been officially announced via a premiere trailer last month, Infinity Ward's shooter sequel Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare has now been officially officially announced in an Activision press release. Modern Warfare will be the first game in the series to escape the clutches of the World War II setting, and marks Infinity Ward's return to the franchise after fellow Activision studio Treyarch developed the console-only Call of Duty 3.

PC gamers will be able to join in this time around, with Modern Warfare heading to PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. The game's multiplayer component is said to continue in the vein of Call of Duty 2.

Infinity Ward co-leader and COD4 project lead Jason West spoke on the planned gameplay variety. "As the story unfolds, the player is introduced to new gameplay at every turn," he said. "One moment you are fast-roping from your Black Hawk helicopter after storming into the war zone with an armada of choppers, the next you are a sniper, under concealment, in a Ghillie suit miles behind enemy lines, the next you are engaging hostiles from an AC-130 gunship thousands of feet above the battlefield."

Infinity Ward's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is set for release this fall.
