Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is just a few short months away from release. The latest installment in the rich first-person-shooter franchise promises the return of intense multiplayer combat, a fan-favorite Zombie mode, and a campaign that will keep everyone on the edge of their feet.
While Treyarch confirmed 16 new maps for launch, it seems that one iconic map is included in that number and is returning in the latest installment. Nuketown has been a staple of the series since its debut in 2010’s Black Ops 1.

When it was first hinted that Borderlands 4 could be revealed at the Summer Game Fest, fans were buzzing with excitement, and rightfully so. The last proper Borderlands title dropped in 2019, and since then we only had the Tiny Tina’s Wonderland spin-off in 2022.
Well, we have some good news and some bad news for you. Borderlands 4 may not be shown at the event this year. This might burst many bubbles, but it is also an opportunity for a different fan-favorite franchise to gain another installment.
Will Mafia 4 Take the Wheel With Borderlands 4 in the Back Seat? Borderlands 4 may not be revealed quite so soon.
Even with the demise of E3, other events and expos have popped up to fill in the void. As such, summer is one of the most active times for gaming studios and companies to reveal upcoming titles that could be slated for that year’s holiday season.

Zeal for the next Call of Duty game is worth watching among Xbox fans. As of now, they don’t seem to care about other video games and are waiting for the popular military shooter to arrive on day one of the Game Pass. Maybe they’ve already jumped to the conclusion that it’s already a success, which means Activision can safely say, ‘That’s marketing done right’.
One game that recently became a victim of Activision was Kena: Bridge of Spirits. Despite the fact that it received several accolades, including Indie Game of the Year, it doesn’t make a difference to fans. They would rather wait for the military shooter to arrive on Game Pass than pay for a certain game directly.

Xbox Game Pass now has both games from the Octopath Traveler series. If you have a Microsoft Game Pass account, you can download Octopath Traveler and its popular sequel, Octopath Traveler II, on Cloud, Console, or PC.
For people who don’t know about the series, Octopath Traveler is a big adventure game with lots of story and building up the characters. Both games are on Game Pass now, so you can play all of Octopath Traveler without buying anything extra.
More News: Like a Dragon Yakuza Live-Action Series Coming to Amazon Prime Video This Fall
Octopath Traveler came out in 2018. The game looks old-fashioned, like the classic RPGs from Japan, and it’s about the connected stories of eight travelers. Each person has special skills that can be used in fights and other scenes, so players have lots of choices in how they play.

Here at FandomWire, we review the new Disney+ Star Wars saga The Acolyte. This article does not contain significant spoilers.
While many have openly complained that Disney has ruined Star Wars and Marvel franchises with event-streaming series, I’m not one of them as of late. In fact, with the magnetic and compelling Ahsoka that came out last year, they are on a roll with The Acolyte, a stunning and captivating new chapter in the Star Wars saga.
By the time the fourth episode brings the rising action that wrenches up the tension and suspense to new levels, you have numerous badass lightsaber battles, galactic battlefields, a jaw-dropping introduction to one of the series’ best new villains, and, of course, who doesn’t love a Jedi Wookiee who wields the Force like the back of their scruffy hands?
Not to mention the birth of female action heroines for which Disney does not get enough credit.

Baldur’s Gate 3 was one of the titles that proved that indie titles could compete with and sometimes even outclass Aaa titles. After a lengthy Early Access window, the game finally released and scooped multiple awards, including several Game of the Year awards.
Video game development is an iterative process, and various ideas and plans are discussed and trashed several times before the game is ready for release; Larian’s title was no exception. It has come to light that the game would have been vastly different had the studio not altered its plans.

The characters of Baldur’s Gate 3 are nuanced and feel very authentic. However, apart from hearing various characters in the Forgotten Realms, the player also lends their ears to the game to the game’s narrator.

After 7 years in development, Hellblade 2 was finally released on May 21. Although it has received an overall positive reception due to its technical capabilities and graphical fidelity, it has left a little disappointment due to the lack of improvements from the original 2017 game.
It seems like it hasn’t been as big of a hit as Xbox was probably hoping for, as the game has already left Steam’s top 50 charts. Helldivers 2, on the other hand, has maintained a consistent playerbase since launch and is still in the top 50 after three months.
Hellblade 2’s Player Count on Steam Is Rather Low
Hopefully, Hellblade 2′s player count won’t negatively affect the studio.
Despite releasing on both Xbox and PC Game Pass on day one at no additional cost, like a lot of other first-party games, Hellblade 2 is seeing rather low player numbers. According to Steam charts, its all-time peak was at 3,892 players.

After months of rumors and speculation, Microsoft announced Call of Duty (CoD): Black Ops 6 on May 23rd, 2024. The game’s official reveal caught many off-guard and brought us interesting things, such as cryptic teasers, fictional news reports, and massive advertisements. While it’s already confirmed we will see Black Ops 6 on Game Pass, certain new details have emerged that will excite players on older-generation consoles.
The latest reports suggest that Activsion’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 might possibly also launch on PlayStation 4 (PS4) and Xbox One consoles. While this may be disappointing news for those hoping for a massive graphics upgrade in the upcoming CoD game, it’s surely reassuring news for gamers who still haven’t jumped to the latest-generation consoles.

It’s Stellar Blade vs Hellblade 2 Because Apparently, We Can’t Have Good Games without a Console War
Hellblade 2 is out, and the reviews are in. The highly anticipated sequel to the 2017 title Senua’s Sacrifice: Hellblade came out around 24 hours ago, and people have been running to get their hands on it via Game Pass or Steam.
The game being excluded from PlayStation consoles has given another reason for people to throw oil on the never-ending console wars. This time, the crowd is comparing the new Hellblade with a PS5 exclusive via their review scores, and the competition is close.

Hellblade 2 is the next game to fall victim to the console war.

Hellblade 2 is a sequel to the 2017 hit Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, which is out today. It was first revealed at The Game Awards in 2019 and has since been highly anticipated by fans of the original, as it features the same dark and gritty narrative with bloody combat, similar to the original game.

There are a lot of streamers out there, but none quite like Dropout. “I’m a determined hipster,” jokes Dropout owner and CEO Sam Reich. “I can’t do anything that the rest of the industry is doing — I’m just too determined to be unique.”
Unique is not difficult to find on Dropout, which was created in 2018 as a subscription service for CollegeHumor content before CHMedia rebranded to Dropout in 2023. Take Game Changer, hosted by Reich, where the premise changes every episode and the contestants must learn the rules as they play. This season alone has seen an elaborate version of Simon Says, a parody of The Newlywed Game and a simple trivia game-turned-scavenger hunt where contestants need to search the studio for buzzers to answer questions.
There’s also Dimension 20, an anthology series where a group of improvisors play role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons. “It all...

You can’t say the title Squid Game out loud in a public place without seeing a couple of faces light up and another few cringe. The South Korean TV show took over the world in a matter of days after its release, becoming a massive cultural phenomenon — but three years later, there’s still no sequel, and the public is growing frustrated.
Fortunately, Netflix just released another TV show with a similar idea: it also comes from South Korea, has a unique twist to it, and might just become the next big thing.
Welcome to a New Money Game
To say that Squid Game popularized money games would be an understatement. They’re fun and engaging and, unlike in the iconic series, don’t typically end in bloodshed. A fun concept to play around with, and an uncharted potential for social commentary in the world of advanced capitalism. What’s not to love here?...

In the board game The Werewolves of Thiercelieux, inspired by Werewolf, paranoia and mistrust ensues as players seek to uncover the hidden identity of a werewolf in their midst. Netflix unveiled a first look image at Family Pack this morning, a French comedy that adapts the game for what looks to be a fun werewolf romp.
As if that’s not intriguing enough, the cast includes Léon: The Professional actor Jean Reno!
The logline for Family Pack: “After discovering a mysterious card game, a family is thrust back in time to a medieval village where they must fend off dangerous werewolves each night.”
François Uzan (“Lupin”) helms the family-friendly feature.

Jesse Moss and Tony Gerber’s War Game documents a nifty six-hour exercise in roleplay, commencing on the anniversary of the January 6 United States Capitol attack. Put on by the Vet Voice Foundation in 2023, this bit of roleplay included U.S. officials in both defense and intelligence acting out their response to a fabricated but feasible coup attempt supported by the active military. It’s a stark, scary scenario succinctly laid out by Moss and Gerber, with aide from Janessa Goldbeck, CEO of Vet Voice. The results of the planned practice aren’t very reassuring.
Steve Bullock (former governor of Montana) plays “the President” here, informed by his team of a developing situation wherein a potential organized revolt is activating all across the nation.
