Activision Removes AI Built Call of Duty Browser Ports

Activision removed unofficial AI-built Call of Duty browser ports on October 12, 2026, after issuing DMCA copyright complaints against projects by developer Luckey Faraday that recreated Black Ops series content with original maps, models, and animations.

According to Kucoin, the affected projects include Claude of Duty: Vibe Slops II and Kino der Toten. The first recreated Black Ops II multiplayer experiences with AI-controlled bots on Hijacked and Nuketown 2025, while the second recreated a Zombies map for single-player use.

The projects were built with AI agents and the Three.js framework, but Activision objected because the games used assets from its Call of Duty releases. The GitHub repository for the Black Ops II project remained accessible, containing code and tools but not extracted game assets, according to news.lavx.hu.

Luckey Faraday, the developer behind the projects, had stated on the project page that the work was not connected to the rights holders or technology companies involved.

"The project is not affiliated with Activision, Treyarch, Microsoft, or Anthropic," stated Luckey Faraday, developer.

Faraday later confirmed that Activision targeted his browser-based Call of Duty projects after the takedown notices were issued. The action followed the spread of AI-assisted ports and modifications that use automated coding tools.

"For porting CoD games to the browser," confirmed Luckey Faraday, developer.

The developer said the situation represented an early copyright dispute involving AI-assisted game creation and described himself using a term associated with creators who rely heavily on AI-generated code.

"Vibe coder," described Luckey Faraday, developer.

According to ixbt.games, other AI-assisted game projects have also faced legal action, including a Fallout-themed project and an AI decompilation effort involving Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The cases highlight copyright concerns around recreating commercial games without permission.

Activision has not publicly commented on the takedowns, while its legal team continues monitoring unauthorized distribution of Call of Duty assets, according to news.lavx.hu.
