25 with the release of 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare,' a title developed by Infinity Ward studio that figures to be one of the top-selling games - if not the top-selling game - of 2019.

Rather than a fanciful brainstorm followed by code and keystrokes, as many would assume of a video game’s creation process, the latest title in the ever-expanding “Call of Duty” pantheon formed around research and revelations, groundwork for a multi-million-dollar development process representative of the modern, multi-billion-dollar gaming industry.
