Call of Duty: Ghosts - Multiplayer Reveal [Trailer and Full Live Stream Event Video Inside]

 
It's that time of the year again, when the gaming world gets a teaser of what the next Call of Duty multiplayer will be like and we start to discover the new additions/changes that we'll soon all need to get to grips with. In some ways I like to think that this years CoD is a little bit special, not only will it be the first offering for the next generation of consoles but it's also a new series and potentially the last CoD title that many of us will play on our current consoles. Anyway enough sentimental twaddle, earlier this evening Activision hosted a special live streaming event that showcased what Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer has to offer and as per usual it was started off with the customary reveal trailer. I've embedded both the multiplayer reveal trailer and the full reveal event separately below, so that if you're not interested in the watching the full stream, you don't have to waste time loading it. However, if you are planning to watch the full stream, note that the reveal trailer is shown in it, so there's no need for you to load up both videos.



The reveal trailer itself isn't particularly long but I think there's loads of information to be had and so I hope to do a detailed trailer analysis of it sometime later this week, thus if you fancy hearing/reading some of my thoughts and guesses, be sure to check back. The live streaming event on the other hand, was roughly an hour long and featured various speakers on stage, talking about certain aspects of the new game, there was quite a lot of information divulged but I think they did a fairly thorough job of elaborating on the subjects they discussed. They didn't go into too much detail about specific new perks, kill streaks and weapon models, so I might do another detailed analysis on the event's gameplay and in game menus. The full event is now available to watch from various sources on YouTube but for your convenience, I've picked out the one that I think is of the best quality and embedded it below. The version that I've used was uploaded by GameSpot and is available in HD, all the content is exactly the same, apart from their watermark in the lower corner but this really doesn't stop you from seeing anything.



If you'd rather read a summary of what was in the live stream event rather than spend an hour of your free time watching it, I'm currently in the process of writing up a bullet points list of the things that were mentioned and aim to have it laid out nicely in another post for you, within the next ~24 hours. I recommend you still check out the reveal trailer though, it doesn't quite cover the depth of information shared in the streamed event but it does give you a broad idea of what to expect in Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer. Oh and by the way, see if you can't recognise the artist on the song used in the trailer, apparently a certain someone has a new album coming out later this year and this was the first public play of their new track ;)

What did you think of the reveal trailer? Are you now excited for CoD: Ghosts or have you been put off? Let me know below :)
