2017 — Federation War
|
Call of Duty: Conquest is a video game developed by Frost Games and Tachibana Games, and published by Morningwood Arts for Xbox One, PS4, and PC on November 15th, 2029. The game features no Campaign, focusing only on Multiplayer and Cooperative.
The game uses an "experimental" version of the Semblance engine dubbed as Semblance X, confirmed by Anakin Nakamura to have been in development since Call of Duty: Infected. Conquest is also the first AAA game published by Morningwood Arts, costing a total of $468 million.
Overview
In 2022, the Federal Alliance of the Corporate Sectors were founded by Atto, an African-American corporate business man and retired Army General. In 2029, the Federal Alliance expanded into most of the Middle East, Europe, Asia, and the Oceania regions, overthrowing the European Union, Russian Federation, People's Republic of China, and the Australian government. With NATO having almost no power, it disbands and its remaining forces are absorbed into the Corporate Sector Military. The countries in North and South Americas, along with what remains of the United Nations, come together simply as the American Republic.
In 2037, citizens of the Corporate Sectors became tired of their new government, formed a rebellion to overthrow the Federal Alliance and to set up a new government in its place. At the same time, the American Republic was being pressured by the Corporate Sector Alliance to join them in order to ensure world peace, but kept denying their requests and believed they may be gearing up for war. In response, the Republic secretly prepared failsafe plans in the event of another world war.
And now in 2038, the Corporate Sector Alliance invades Los Angeles, which begun the Corporate-Republic War. Forces of the Republic Military attempt to retake the city, and drive back the Corporate Sector forces off American soil. Meanwhile, the Republic Military counterattack by invading former Spain coastal city A Coruña while the Corporate Sector Military responds as well to defend the city.
Multiplayer
As war begins between the Corporate Sector and the American Republic, the military forces of both sides begin clashing together in the hopes of achieving victory over the other. The Resistance joins the war, fighting against the Corporate Sector and unsure whether or not to trust the American Republic as their goals differ in the war's aftermath.
Conquest is a new gamemode that is focused on large scale warfare to be played on a large map, similar to Battlefield 1's Operations mode. In Conquest, the war between the Corporate Sector and American Republic is able to be tipped in either the favour of the CS or AR. In addition, new Seasons will feature a new Conquest map including weekly mission-like challenges to be completed.
Armoury
First introduced in Call of Duty: Awakening of the Hive, the Armoury returns with Mr. Tachibana as the owner once again. The Armoury contains cosmetic items such as weapon camouflages, outfits and skins as well as Specialized Weapon Variants.
