New evidence reveals that Sledgehammer Games is now working on an unannounced action RPG.
Why it matters: It's possible that Sledgehammer Games is working on a Call of Duty game in an action RPG genre after Black Ops 7's poor performance. It could also be a whole new IP for all we know.
Ben Wanat was the creative
This tidbit comes from Ben Wanat's LinkedIn profile, a former senior creative director on this unannounced action RPG at Sledgehammer Games. He was involved with franchise planning, pitching, and hiring.
Ben also directed prototypes, player mechanics, and world layout, alongside concept creation of environments and characters. However, he left Sledgehammer Games in August 2025, so it's unclear whether the game is still in development to this day.
