23.6.2023
Ubisoft’s big, crossover first-person shooter XDefiant isn’t out until later this year. However, a short open beta is currently being held until June 23.

The Best Call of Duty Battle Royale Isn’t Warzone
29.3.2023
Six or seven days a week, MinerHoboJo fires up his PlayStation 5 and signs into Twitch or YouTube to stream a five-year-old game—Blackout, the first Call of Duty battle royale. By his own estimation, and community consensus, Miner is the game’s global leader in solo wins and kills. (There are...
Call Of Duty’s Ridiculous Donnie Darko Crossover Is Kinda Funny, Kinda Sad
27.10.2021
Suffice to say, video game crossovers can be pretty bogus outside of the Super Smash Bros. series. But putting Donnie Darko stuff in Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War takes the cake. This might be the single most ridiculous mash-up I’ve ever seen. The whole thing is so stupid that...
Activision Blizzard’s QA Department Seems Like A Hellhole
12.8.2021

Call Of Duty's Most Hated Zombies Map Should Make A Comeback
9.6.2021

Black Ops Cold War’s Multi-Team Elimination Is Almost Blackout 2.0
24.5.2021
A lot of new stuff arrived with Call of Duty’s mid-season “Reloaded” update last week. It’s easy to get distracted by the ‘80s Action Hero event’s challenges and modes, but hidden in the mix is “Multi-Team Elimination,” a Fireteam mode for Black Ops Cold War that’s worth checking out. Read more

Warzone Is (Slowly) Teasing A Zombies Event
12.3.2021
With the arrival of Call of Duty’s Season 2 on February 25, zombies took the story spotlight. Black Ops Cold War got a great Zombies “Outbreak” mode, and Warzone’s Verdansk map got a ship full of the undead. Warzone is slowly being infected by the undead, leading up to a potential new mode...
Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Menus Suck
11.3.2021
Booting up the newest Call of Duty, I was greeted by terrible-looking menus, an overwhelming amount of options, too much information, and some ugly-looking ads. It’s not a great first impression and feels like a cobbled-together mess. In other words: It bad.Read more

Call of Duty’s Warzone Has Seen Better Days
22.1.2021
Call of Duty’s battle royale Warzone is just under a year old. When it launched in March of 2020, I praised the 150-player online game for smooth gameplay, simplified mechanics, and fast-paced action. But all of the features that once made Warzone one of the best battle royales to drop into...
Call Of Duty's 1980s Shopping Mall Map Gets The Little Details Right
28.12.2020
Maybe it’s the 2020 pandemic blues, but I can’t get enough of Black Ops Cold War’s retro shopping mall map. “The Pines” is a standard 6v6 multiplayer map that was added earlier this month with the launch of Cold War’s Season One. It’s a New Jersey-based mall filled with retail flashbacks. I’ve...
