One of the most trusted leakers for Call of Duty will no longer share confidential information about the gaming franchise after being hit with a cease and desist order. TheGhostOfHope (also known to the community as “Hope”) announced on X that he is complying with legal demands from developer Activision to “stop leaking and disseminating confidential information related to Call of Duty/Activision.”
“Still gonna stick around and chat about Official Call of Duty info and anything not related to leaks/confidential information,” Hope said. “Cheers for these past few years.”
Hope gained a reputation for sharing reliable information about past, present, and future Call of Duty titles with his followers — including recent rumors that a standalone Call of Duty Zombies title is being developed for next-gen consoles. The official Call of Duty X account has responded to Hope’s compliance amid speculation that he was shut down for being “right about everything.”
“Nah,” the Call of Duty account said “Even when leaks are wrong, they still hurt the people building the game and mess with player expectations.”
