Which Call of Duty game is set in World War II and released in 2017?

Call of Duty: WWII is the Call of Duty game set in World War II that was released in 2017. Developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision, it launched worldwide on November 3, 2017.

The campaign follows Ronald “Red” Daniels, a young American soldier in the 1st Infantry Division. Its story focuses on the Western Front and includes the Allied invasion of Normandy, commonly known as D-Day, as well as later fighting across Europe.

The title returned the series to its historical roots after several games focused on modern or futuristic warfare. It was the first primarily World War II-set main entry since Treyarch’s Call of Duty: World at War in 2008, making it a deliberate return to the franchise’s original setting.

World at War is a frequent mix-up because it is also set during World War II, but it was released nearly a decade earlier. Call of Duty: WWII is the canonical answer because its title explicitly identifies the conflict and its release year matches 2017.
