Warzone 2 Season 2 is a harsh reminder that Call of Duty's tech is wasted on Call of Duty

As a new season for Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 arrives, I find myself re-living the same feelings I had with the 2019 game and its battle royale spin-off.

My plight is that of any discerning shooter fan; I continue to expect more from Call of Duty, as the series remains happy providing, more or less, what it has been known for since the original Modern Warfare. But where it’s always been easy to write CoD off as a franchise that’s never really been challenged or needed to alter its winning formula, its industry-leading tech and production values make that much harder today.

Consider, if you will, this analogy. Imagine getting a powerful PC or the latest iPhone, only for you to use it just for word processing and playing the occasional Tetris clone: there’s nothing inherently wrong with that, but many would question the need to spend that much money every year on hardware for tasks that use maybe 5% of its power.
