Eric Hirshberg on Black Ops 2: “Hands down, this is the most ambitious Call of Duty ever.”

May 3, 2012 by Jacob Saylor

Those are big words.

As I am sure you are all aware, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 was announced yesterday to a thunderous response from fan and media alike. However, publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg insists that, "Hands down, this is the most ambitious Call of Duty ever,"

"Hands down, this is the most ambitious Call of Duty ever," he insisted.

"We are bringing disruptive innovation to the franchise and we are doing it on several fronts. We're pushing the boundaries technologically, graphically, and from a narrative and gameplay perspective.

"At the same time, we need to stay true to the epic realism, authenticity, heart pumping adrenaline, and cinematic action that so many people love and expect from a Call of Duty game. Treyarch's vision for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 will redefine the Call of Duty franchise for the future – both literally and figuratively."

While it is apparent the industry is more than excited for this monumental title, will it live up to the hype Hirshberg is creating? Saying that this is the biggest Call of Duty yet is a huge statement, and we are sure Infinity Ward – Treyarch’s arch nemesis – will have something to say about it.
