Activision Publishing CEO Mike Griffith today confirmed that Call of Duty creator Infinity Ward, which most recently handled Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, will return to the franchise next year with Call of Duty 6.

Griffith, speaking at Activision Blizzard's Analyst Day event, had previously revealed that a new Call of Duty game would arrive in 2009, but had not offered any other details at the time.

Following publisher Activion's "leapfrog strategy" of alternating developers, Call of Duty 6 will follow up Treyarch's Call of Duty: World at War, which launches on November 5 for PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PS2, and Wii. Treyarch had also developed Call of Duty 3 as a part of that strategy.
