According to French website Gameblog.fr, Amazon France recently published then removed a product listing for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Upon posting the story, Activision France reportedly told the website to remove the story or face being blacklisted from future media events. Gameblog kept the story up, and apparently were then uninvited from an upcoming Transformers: Fall of Cybertron preview event and planned advertising was pulled.

Activision said earlier this month it plans to release a new Call of Duty title this year and recently registered the BlackOps2.com domain name.

We contacted Activision for clarification on this story. We'll update this post when we hear back.

[Update]: Joystiq spotted a developer resume online that cites Call of Duty Black Ops 2.

The plot thickens then... Personally, not a big fan of COD, but it's still awkward, although I suppose it can be good in a marketing sense, for a company when something like this happen.

Espérons que personne ne le remarquait.

Call of Duty 9 :Black Harder

Won't... you guys get blacklisted for this too?

Activision has the hardest time keeping Call of Duty titles secret. Then again its not like they're not expected.

Just like Ubisoft with Assassins Creed, Activision is bleeding the CoD label dry. They did the same thing to Medal of Honor and look to repeat the process. What a shame.

SURPRISE!

by ZiggyStarbuck Friday, February 17, 2012 at 01:18 PM

Wow, what a shocker.

Just part of the routine...
by Epicopenworld Friday, February 17, 2012 at 01:19 PM

Is anyone REALLY shocked by this? Same game, same damn engine, boring campaign...blah blah blah....
by firedude3663 Friday, February 17, 2012 at 01:19 PM

meh could be interesting could suck dont really care

Black Ops 2, seriously? Black Ops was alright, but they're dead set on running the Call of Duty name into the ground until they get every last dollar from the same people who bought the last 8 yearly releases. Calm down Infinity Ward/Treyarch.

If they plan on making a new Call of Duty every year for the next 30 years, why not make one with crazy setpieces and action sequences set in World War 1? That would be a different direction at least.

Well that was totally unexpected!
by cannonlars Friday, February 17, 2012 at 01:25 PM

I didn't like Black Ops. They are getting so farfetched.
by ThisFreakinGuy Friday, February 17, 2012 at 01:27 PM

While I would not mind a Black Ops sequel, I do not like the title. Modern Warfare 3... that sounds decent. But Black Ops 2 just doesn't click with me for some reason.
by Frankdaddy28 Friday, February 17, 2012 at 01:27 PM

Interesting am i the only one who thinks the title BlackOps2 just sounds goofy
