Infinity Ward’s Community Manager Robert Bowling has confirmed that the Call of Duty developer is in the process of working on a new project for as of yet unnamed platforms.

While concrete details have yet to be revealed, Bowling divulged that the firm might be looking to create a new intellectual property (IP) on top of its existing franchises, with Internet speculation suggesting that the title may possibly take the form of a new science fiction title.

Writing in his blog, Bowling commented, "The recently renegotiated deal may not seem like much of an impact from the outside perspective," adding, "But it has laid the ground work and kick started our future project, as well as the possibility of a unique new IP by Infinity Ward, that we'll have complete control over."

In addition, he also revealed that Infinity Ward has recently renewed its contract with long time publisher, Activision.

Stay tuned for more information as it breaks.

    Can't wait to see what they'll come up with, a sci fi slant would be interesting.

    Well, I'm not into the hero worship some of you are into, but it's clear they know how to program for the PS3, which is darn near rare right now.  More power to them.  By the way, COD6: Future Warfare is a stupid idea.  The point of COD, MOH and SOCOM is that they're reality based.  Go play Unreal and Halo for Sci-Fi garbage.

    this sounds interesting but no doubt it will be multi-platform, whatever they're making I have high expectations after the success of COD4

    hmm, "recently renogotiated deal" sounds fishy, can it be MS moneyhat for timed exclusive or outright exclusive for xbox360 only? It's sad that MS has crap for first party developers and they need to buy games for their crap console.
