Call of Duty is a highly successful first-person shooter video game franchise published by Activision since 2003. Initially developed by Infinity Ward, the series expanded with contributions from Treyarch and Sledgehammer Games, as well as other developers for spin-off titles. Known for its intense military combat and engaging multiplayer modes, Call of Duty has consistently delivered high-quality gaming experiences. The franchise continues to evolve, with the latest installment, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, released in October 2024.
In 2007, contract negotiations between Infinity Ward's founders and Activision led to legal disputes. Jason West and Vince Zampella were forced out and formed Respawn Entertainment. Lawsuits were filed against Activision regarding unpaid royalties and bonuses.
In 2017, AM General, the Humvee manufacturer, sued Activision for using the Humvee in Call of Duty games.
In April 2020, a federal judge ruled in favor of Activision, dismissing AM General's lawsuit over the use of the Humvee in Call of Duty games, arguing its use was for military realism, not trademark infringement.
