<p>The next Call of Duty has dropped a debut trailer ahead of its <strong>May 4th</strong> reveal. The series<strong> </strong>seems to have stuck to its guns with another Warfare title along with the most distinct sci-fi flavor we&#8217;ve seen so far in the franchise, boasting powered exoskeletons, hover bikes, and more drones than you can shake a stick at. Oh, and it involves jumping across the Golden Gate Bridge in tune to explosions.</p>
<p><em>Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare&#8217;</em>s slated for a<strong> Nov. 4th</strong> release according to its trailer above and its platforms at launch are currently unknown. The Sledgehammer Games made FPS takes place across an apparent near-future United States embroiled in social, economic, and political conflicts across the globe with private military companies at their center.</p>
<p>Last but not least, it seems to star none other than Frank Underwood himself, or at least Kevin Spacey&#8217;s yet-to-be named character giving a damn good imitation of him. The <em>House of Cards</em> star is as graphically rendered as money can buy these days and proves once again how far video-games have come in terms of facial mo-cap. His undisclosed role leaves much to the imagination, but given his world-domination speech, it&#8217;s not a leap to think he just might be the villain or grim-faced anti-hero of the story.</p>
<p>Just earlier this week, Activision gave fans a glimpse into the world of private military companies (or PMCs) via its &#8220;Vice For Hire&#8221; short documentary which you can watch down below. Talking with real-life industry experts, it teases just a bit about what heavy-handed political commentary there is to come.</p>

<p>With little in the way of gameplay, modes, or any specific details on the near-future battlefield to speak of just yet, we&#8217;ll just have to wait until Sunday to get a further handle on just what<em> Advanced Warfare</em> has in store for us. Tune into Activision&#8217;s live press conference at 12:00 p.m. Central Time (10:00 Pacific) for the full reveal.</p>
