Rumour: Live Call of Duty Stream Points to Alleged Korean-Set Modern Warfare 4

We’re tracking a live tease that could herald the next entry in the Call of Duty line — and the clues are coming straight from an ongoing stream on the official channel. Per GamesRadar, the stream’s Korean-titled feed (machine- translated as "Camera 004 | LIVE") has shifted from a quiet street scene to scenes of soldiers, explosions and air-raid sirens, and that shift has reignited a string of leaks and claims about what might be coming.

What was reported

GamesRadar watched the live stream on the official Call of Duty YouTube channel and reports the feed began as "a view of a street somewhere in Korea, complete with ambient noise and power cables gently swaying in the breeze."

  • The image then "changed to show soldiers moving through the area, before an enormous explosion set the scene ablaze."
  • Since that point the feed "has been much darker," with "people screaming, air raid sirens, and more explosions" audible to viewers, per GamesRadar.
  • The stream title appears in Korean and machine translation reads "Camera 004 | LIVE."

Being hosted on the official channel makes it an obvious tease for something new from Activision Blizzard, and the stream arrives alongside multiple public leaks and claims that point toward a Korea-based setting for the next Modern Warfare.

Source and credibility

Multiple leak sources are being referenced in the current chatter. GamesRadar points to a well-known former leaker, TheGhostOfHope, who earlier this year claimed the 2026 Call of Duty release would feature North and South Korea in its campaign and name-dropped three playable factions: 141, the SAS, and Republic of Korea Army. That leaker also said the game was titled Modern Warfare with a Korean character that can mean 'four'.

TheGhostOfHope has reportedly been told to stop leaking — "Activision has legally demanded that I stop leaking and disseminating confidential information," the leaker previously stated — a detail some interpret as lending weight to the claims. Take this with a pinch of salt, though: the official Call of Duty account has previously pushed back, saying "Even when leaks are wrong, they still hurt the people building the game and mess with player expectations."

Other names in the mix include Billbil-kun, who shared a purportedly blurry cover image allegedly for "one of Activision's games: [Korean character meaning 'four']" showing "three soldiers standing side by side," and NateTheHate, who claimed this could be "the first Call of Duty game on Switch 2." VGC is also referenced by GamesRadar as noting these leaks preceded the stream.

What it could mean

If true, the live feed and the surrounding leaks point toward a Modern Warfare entry set around the Korean peninsula, likely focusing on urban scenes, military movement and large-scale conflict — the stream's audio and visuals align with that tone. The specific claims to watch for, per the cited leaks, include:

  • A Korean setting featuring both North and South Korea.
  • Playable factions claimed to include 141, the SAS, and the Republic of Korea Army.
  • An apparent title that uses a Korean character meaning 'four', implying a Modern Warfare installment.
  • Potential platform notes such as the claim from NateTheHate that this could arrive on Switch 2 as a first for the franchise there.

All of these are currently unconfirmed and rest on a mix of a live channel tease and prior leak claims. The stream itself is a concrete occurrence; everything else remains in the realm of rumor and should be treated accordingly.

Why This Matters

We’re excited because the stream comes from the official Call of Duty channel and directly echoes the themes pushed by the leaks: Korean urban environments, soldiers, and large explosions suggest a cinematic, conflict-driven campaign if the leak claims hold up. If the reported playable factions and Korean setting are accurate, it could mark a distinct geographical focus for the series.

But be sceptical — reputable-sounding leaks have been both right and wrong before, and the official account has publicly warned about the harm of premature leaks. For now, we’ll keep watching the live feed and the channels named in these claims (TheGhostOfHope, Billbil-kun, NateTheHate, and outlets like VGC) while urging readers to take all unconfirmed details with a pinch of salt.

We’ll update you as soon as we can verify any official confirmation from Activision Blizzard or the Call of Duty channels — but for now, the Korean-set Modern Warfare rumors have just gone from whispers to an official-channel stream that you can watch right now, and that alone is enough to get us interested.
