Superannuation has posted another sleuth feature on Kotaku, and it, the anonymous researcher has cited the resume of Infinity Ward’s lead engineer and project manager, Andrew Aye. The CVG states he is working on an “unannounced title,” which is likely Modern Warfare 4 which is set for a release sometime in 2013 – if previous releases are any indication. Platforms noted for the game were Xbox 360, PS3, PC DX11, and “TBA” – which could either mean Wii U or the next console from Sony or Microsoft. Aye also noted he’s hard at it on “support game and engine development”, as well as being “responsible for setting technical direction and design for a new high-end DX11 code base”. This has lead Super to conclude the next CoD game from Infinity War will “be an entirely different game from the current-generation versions, as was the case for Call of Duty 2.”

PublisherS should do this more often, making games available on new and old systems. It wouldn't be a good idea for first party titles, but it could benefit third party.

For the first year of a generation there usually are

Last gen it was GUN, Just Cause, Need for Speed Most wanted/Carbon/Prostreet, most sports titles, Call of Duty 3, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, Splinter Cell: Double Agent, The Godfather: The Game. And a lot more if you include the Wii.

There are alresady a bunch for the Wii U, like Batman, Assassin's Creed etc. And Watch Dogs is comming to PC, current gen and TBA so that is a lock
