Activision and Infinity Ward plan to debut Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare multiplayer at Call of Duty XP, meaning we won’t be seeing any multiplayer gameplay until September.
Activision just announced Call of Duty XP, the fan-focused event where players get to attend a show hosted in Inglewood and get hands-on time with the upcoming game, enjoy shows and grab some swag.
The company has also announced that the worldwide reveal for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare multiplayer will take place at this event, which will run from September 2-4.
A press release reads: “Epic Fan Celebration Also Includes the World Premiere and First Hands-On of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered Multiplayer.”

That means we have another three months before seeing any multiplayer action from the new entry in the insanely popular franchise.
Many fans had been hoping to see some multiplayer at E3 2016, most likely at Sony’s press conference as the company nabbed the deal to get DLC before rival Microsoft.
We still expect to see extended gameplay from Infinite Warfare, though now this looks set to be exclusively from the campaign, and perhaps even a chance to check out some more of the changes coming in Modern Warfare Remastered, which will be available in the Legacy Edition version of Infinite Warfare.
