Senior producer Noah Heller dropped hints during an exclusive interview with OXM that Call of Duty: World at War could be the last one set during World War II.

Noah Heller put a lot of emphasis on the fact that World at War would effectively be 'ending the war' when asked how hard it was to revisit World War II following Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare's success.
"Since World at War was in development for two years, it was still in development when Modern Warfare... well, it hadn't even come out yet," Heller explains. "So our path was a little bit set at that point but we also knew that we wanted to show the end of the war.
I won't let your readers read into the comment too much but we are showing the final battles of the Pacific and the European Theatre and that lets us put a close to the war.
I'm sure game companies will be making World War II games for years to come and World War II is a very classic war. But we're happy that we put the war to bed."
