According to the presentation schedule, the presentation description says:
The talk will show high-quality next-generation shading driven with a plausible game rig. Ultimately, our goal is to overcome the uncanny valley with next-gen run-time techniques and good artistic direction.
Lots of rumors going around that Activision’s next Call of Duty game will be a launch title for next-generation consoles. Theres still no confirmation that this new game engine will be used for the next Call of Duty but we’re going to keep a close eye on it anyways…
