Call of Duty 4 Remaster Confirmed, Detailed
Modern Warfare Remastered is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
The rumors were right. As part of its Call of Duty Infinite Warfare announcement today, Activision also confirmed that it's remastering 2007's fan-favorite Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
The original game was made by Infinity Ward (which is developing Infinite Warfare), but development on the remaster for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC is behind done by Activision subsidiary Raven Software. Infinity Ward is of course involved with the production, as it is executively producing the game.

According to a press release, it will feature "vibrant current generation visuals, with fully improved texture resolution and detail, high-dynamic range lighting, lit and shadowing VFX particles, revamped animation and audio, stunning sound, and much more."
