A petition is gaining momentum asking Activision and Infinity Ward to remake the original 2003 Call of Duty PC game. The campaign appeals to both nostalgia and introducing new players to where the franchise began.
The petition highlights the game’s significant impact on competitive gaming, with many players first experiencing esports through iconic teams like h2k, TEK9, and Dignitas. Since the original game’s release in 2003, the Call of Duty franchise has grown into one of gaming’s biggest successes, with the entire series selling over 327 million copies by 2021. Supporters believe a remake would appeal to veteran players while attracting a new generation to experience the classic that started this gaming phenomenon.
