Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is going to be a bit different than previous CoD games for one reason: you'll be outfitted with a slick cybersuit will allow you to boost-dodge, climb with magnetic gloves, jump unrealistically high, hover in mid-air, and enable optic camouflage.http://images.eurogamer.net/2013/articles/1/6/7/4/8/2/3/call-of-duty-advanced-warfare-gives-you-a-super-powered-suit-139932695602.jpg/EG11/resize/300x-1/quality/70/format/jpgIt sounds like someone's been playing a lot of Titanfall and Vanquish, which is in no way a bad thing.

The super-powered suit and loads of other details about Advanced Warfare were revealed in GameInformer's new cover story (via Gamespot (http://www.gamespot.com/articles/tons-of-call-of-duty-advanced-warfare-details-emerge/1100-6419415/)).Set in 2054, Advanced Warfare is the series' most futuristic entry. Its plot kicks off after a terrorist organisation called the KVA incites an incident likened to "a global 9/11." Player character, Private Mitchell, joins up with Kevin Spacey's PMC where he gets his cool, upgradable "EXO" suit.Mitchell will be voiced by Troy Baker - i.e. the actor behind The Last of Us' Joel, BioShock Infinite's Booker DeWitt, and Batman: Arkham Origins' Joker. For better or worse, he will only speak in cutscenes, and will be the campaign's only protagonist.Advanced Warfighter will feature a co-op mode, though it's unclear if this is separate from the main campaign.Further futuristic tech teased included energy weapons, a vehicle loosely based on actual Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles (MRAPs), and grenades that can reveal nearby enemy locations on your visor.Elsewhere, Microsoft confirmed that Advanced Warfare's DLC will launch first on Xbox platforms (http://news.xbox.com/2014/05/games-call-of-duty-advanced-warfare). This should come as little surprise, as that's the way things have been for awhile. Typically PlayStation platforms and PC receive the same content about a month later.Advanced Warfare will run on a new engine and developer Sledgehammer Games is handling its PC, PS4 and Xbox One releases, while a second, yet-to-be-announced studio will be developing its Xbox 360 and PS3 ports. It's due worldwide on 4th November.
