Activision will try to generate some positive news in the headlines this Friday with a sneak peek at the upcoming Call of Duty title that has been in development by Treyarch that will ship this holiday season.

Up until this point, all we know is that Call of Duty 7, as it has been called, has been in development; and while some different opinions and clues have circulated about the actual content that be included in this new title and where it will be set, we think that it Activision will use this global announcement to take attention away from all of the bad press that is happening right now.

From what we have been told, viewers in the U.S. will be able to see the teaser trailer on GameTrailers, which airs on Spike TV at 12:40 A.M. on Friday. We expect the trailer to be short, but it will at least give us some idea of what the title is all about, as well as the naming that will be attached to the COD branding.
