Earlier this week we reported on a fresh round of rumors about this year’s new Call of Duty game -- specifically, that the Sledgehammer-Games-developed title will be named Call of Duty WWII: Vanguard and will take place at least partly during the 1950s. The source of that leak, the YouTube channel ModernWarzone, has since posted another video elaborating on the purported 50s setting, which they claim will be part of a new alternate history timeline in which World War II continued after 1945.

Per our sources, the 1950s leak that we had a while back, is still true -- 100 percent -- and what else is 100 percent true is that this entire game takes place in an alternate timeline where 1945 wasn't the end of World War II. I don't want to spoil any of the campaign besides...World War II is not the World War II we know. This is going to take place in the 50s more than five years after. I can't tell you when the game starts and when it ends, but I do know it will take place after the real-life events of WWII in parts.
