Game remasters have become a common trend in the video game industry, and it’s a move many gamers are happy to support.

Not too long ago, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 beat out Red Dead Redemption 2 to earn the top spot on the NPD Group’s best-selling games for October 2018, with the first-person shooter’s sales likely having been helped by the existence of its take on battle royale with Blackout. Speaking of which, Activision and Treyarch have now given fans a teaser of an update to come in the game mode that will be changing the map somewhat....

Call Of Duty Zombies has had years of new mechanics. Almost every map in the entire series has introduced something new to the format, from the earliest DLC map of Verruckt to the recent Outbreak in Black Ops Cold War. There are many gimmicks that these maps have introduced. In some cases, they’ve become staples of the series. In others, they never made an appearance outside of their premiere map. Sometimes, these gimmicks deserve to be left in the past....

While players can jump into the free trial period of Blackout for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 right now, developer Treyarch hasn’t taken its foot off the gas when it comes to innovating on its already popular battle royale mode. At this time, the free trial period for Blackout is being complimented by a new mode, called Down But Not Out, which allows for respawning during Quad matches. However another new game mode will soon be added for a limited time, further putting a spin on the norms of Blackout....

After getting through all of Old Yharnam, you finally come upon an old church. Unfortunately for you, there is no sanctuary inside; just horror. The Bloodstarved Beast has made her home there and her erratic movement and devastating combo attacks are sure to gut you before you can so much as scream. More than likely, newer players would categorize this as the hardest boss. She isn’t humanoid like Gascoigne and she isn’t as slow as the Cleric Beast....

Destiny The Taken King has proven to be a hit with critics and fans alike, setting a new benchmark for the property in terms of day one downloads and total concurrent users online. The Taken King also comes with a number of sweeping changes to old mechanics in the game including a stronger narrative, a revamped loot system, and a simplified leveling system. Prior to release, Bungie continued to promise the fanbase that Destiny: The Taken King had many more surprises hidden away and that the three livestreams shown prior to launch hadn’t scratched the surface of what’s waiting....

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s full reveal isn’t until May 17, but that hasn’t stopped developer Treyarch from teasing fans with what’s to come. The studio previously teased that the Pick 10 customization system will be returning in the game, and now it has posted an image on Twitter that may reveal some of the multiplayer perks that will be available. The new Twitter image is accompanied by some text that reads: “Don’t worry, we know some people ....

Like so many Call of Duty games before it, one of the biggest draws to Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is its multiplayer. The game’s beta periods took the hype up a notch, giving fans a chance to play it and provide plenty of constructive feedback. Now that the game’s full release is here, people are eager to own Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare for themselves rather than just take it out for a test drive, but unfortunately for PC gamers, things aren’t that straightforward....

Infinity Ward has delighted fans yet again this week by dropping a content patch that, among other things, brings fan-favorite map Hardhat to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Hardhat is a close quarters map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 set in New York City. The small size of the map offers unique and thrilling action when compared to the vast openness of Verdansk found in Warzone, offering players a fun way to level up pistols, shotguns, and SMGs....

After ample speculation, and significant demand from fans, it appears as if Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered may finally be getting a standalone release in the very near future. As gamers may recall, the remastered title is currently only available through Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s Legacy Edition – which is a decision that left many players rather miffed with franchise publisher Activision. However, it now appears that the title is on its way to making its long-awaited solo debut....

Infinity Ward seems to have plans for Farah going forward, as the character was recently introduced to multiplayer modes in Modern Warfare as a Season 6 operator. The character was integral to the campaign, providing many of the strongest story beats throughout. With Farah surviving the events of the game and a fresh Modern Warfare universe to be explored, Doumit believes a show centered on the character would be a smart move....

Call of Duty: Warzone fans are often experts of their craft. After hours are spent mastering each weapon, loadout, build, and secret on the map they are usually the first to notice that something is missing. When one Warzone fan realized they were being “beamed” by every passing player, they immediately set to work crafting a solution. Warzone is filled with aimbots, hackers, snipers, and more crossing any open area in Verdansk is an instant death sentence....

The biggest contribution that Call of Duty: Warzone has made to the battle royale community is the addition of the Gulag. This in-game mini-battle offers players a second chance at life before being eliminated in the battle-royale experience. While Call of Duty: Warzone’s Gulag has been considered a massive success, there are still some rules to the engagement that have an impact on its merit. While each round of Call of Duty: Warzone’s Gulag gives a limited selection of weapons, a strange glitch allowed a player to bypass the limitation....

Infinity Ward greatly upset Call of Duty: Warzone fans when it made the decision to completely remove the Plunder match type from the game, replacing it with the much less popular Warzone Rumble. Perhaps in response to fan backlash, Infinity Ward is now rolling out a new Call of Duty: Warzone playlist update that adds a Plunder variant to the game in the form of Blood Money. The return of Blood Money in Call of Duty: Warzone was confirmed earlier this week, and Infinity Ward has delivered on its promise....

Content updates for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare continues to ramp up since the introduction of Warzone, and with the updates, numerous weapons and blueprints have been piling up in players’ armories. With numerous players splitting time between traditional multiplayer and Warzone, some players have suggested the possibility of splitting loadout between the respective modes for better organization. While the ten weapon customization slots for multiplayer are sufficient, issues begin to arise when taking into account the varying demands for your multiplayer sessions and drops into downtown....

It’s bittersweet knowing what might have been. Sometimes the best thing a game developer can do for fans is to keep things tightly under wraps. That way if a game in development is cancelled then nobody knows to be upset. Take Invaders, or Invader–the name was still up in the air when the Left 4 Dead successor was cancelled at Turtle Rock Studios. We only know about it because the YouTube account Unforgotten Games recently ran a piece on this cancelled gem that would have pit players against alien invaders instead of zombies....
