Activision Blizzard has been holding off on announcing the upcoming release of Call of Duty: Vanguard, but the silence has been broken. A very brief teaser about the Western Front has officially surfaced online.

Twitter user MrDaleJD recently shared a teaser clip of Call of Duty: Vanguard which apparently came from the team behind Call of Duty itself. The video is five seconds, but several things are captured in the brief video, including gunfire, a German sign that reads "attention," a task force badge, and a World War 2-style helmet, grenade, and gun.

The gun and helmet from the recently surfaced Call of Duty: Vanguard teaser clip aren't the only things that suggest that the next Call of Duty is a World War 2 title. The clip takes place in a dense forest, but several trenches are seemingly blockaded with barbed wire and fallen trees. The clip ends with a closeup on what appears to be a grave memorializing the fallen Sergeant Kingsley.

The gun featured in the Call of Duty: Vanguard trailer is one that long-time CoD fans will be familiar with as it is the returning Sten SMG. The weapon is also seen laying next to a Hammer grenade which was featured in 2017's Call of Duty: WW2. The task force badge found in the teaser is similar to a special task force emblem in Call of Duty: WW2.

Behind the grave of Sgt. Kingsley is a sign that may tease one of the locations in Call of Duty: Vanguard. The sign seemingly teases Merville, Normandy which was the site of the historic D-Day operation. Merville was also home to the Battle of Merville Gun Battery, so Call of Duty: Vanguard may focus on one or both of these historic battles.

The footage included in the Call of Duty: Vanguard clip plays like an old-fashioned tape as it's edited to look like bits of imperfect film are being played. The teaser clip jumps around a lot to unveil the location and the hidden Easter eggs which is a bit discombobulating during the first watch. Since this teaser clip is of the Western Front specifically, the Call of Duty: Vanguard video may be the first of several leading up to its eventual release.

Several Call of Duty fans responded to MrDaleJD's tweet praising the series' return to its roots, while others are disappointed by the prospect of another World War 2 game. One witty Twitter user pointed out Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's like to dislike ratio on YouTube in anticipation of the official reveal for Vanguard. Most fans who responded to MrDaleJD's tweet praised the visuals of Call of Duty: Vanguard despite how short the teaser is.

Call of Duty: Vanguard is expected to be revealed on August 19.
