Not too long ago, Epic Games decided to shake up the layout of Fortnite 's map once more by replacing Risky Reels with an area called The Block , which acts as a means to showcase player-made content from the free-to-play title's new Creative Mode. With The Block now in place, fans have become inspired to show off their more imaginative sides by generating their own content for the game, with some now using the feature to remake classic Call of Duty m
Of course, Fortnite 's Creative Mode doesn't have to solely be used as a means to recreate maps from other shooter franchises, as players can also choose to remake areas from the map that Epic decided to remove throughout the game's ever-evolving lifespan. For instance, with Dusty Depot having fallen by the wayside after a meteor struck the map and turned it into Dusty Divot , fans could always use Creative Mode to recreate the area and show it off in its former gl
With Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 set to release in October later this year, there has been a lot of indication that the title will feature some big differences from its predecessors. First, reports surfaced that Black Ops 4 would not feature a campaign mode - a departure from convention for the series - while shortly afterwards rumors began to circulate that the game would be similar to Overwatch 's hero-based combat. Activision game Closure Blizzard, it seems, are not afraid to make big changes in order to stay relevant in the constantly-evolving shooter ge
Development studio King is best known for mobile games like Candy Crush Saga and Bubble Witch Saga , but the company is now preparing to take on the enduringly popular Call of Duty franchise. King is apparently building a new team based in Stockholm, Sweden, with the purpose of bringing the biggest FPS franchise around to mobile devi
Beta testing for the Call of Duty: Mobile game is chugging along on Android in select regions before it is eventually released this year as a free to play title on iOS and Android. Straight from the testing servers is a glimpse at the map for the game's Battle Royale m
While fans wait anxiously for information on the next console title, another report states that Call of Duty 2020 is becoming Black Ops 5 , following the recent development of Treyarch taking over development on the game. According to the report, Raven and Sledgehammer are staying on as support, but the change in control is apparently due to disagreements between the two studios. Inside sources describe the game's development as "a mess," so hopefully this change is a step in the right direct
Whatever the case, this conference call serves as the latest example of Fortnite 's immense impact on the games industry. However, with Treyarch's teasing of Black Ops 4 's perks already creating a buzz about the title, it will be interesting to see how the two industry giants perform against each other come Octo
Activision is doing what it can to bring Call of Duty to mobile devices in a way that will attract newcomers and longtime fans of the series alike. The developer is including many of the familiar game modes from consoles to Call of Duty: Mobile , such as Multiplayer, Zombies, and Battle Roy
Call of Duty Mobile’s attempt to bring the Call of Duty formula to mobile devices is admirable and mostly successful. The limitations of mobile devices likely mean that we’ll never get an FPS title as accurate and precise as on PC or console. The setup for Call of Duty Mobile works well enough, however, for on-the-go action. The game looks good and comes packed with some of the best content from the Modern Warfare and Black Ops series. There are still serious questions about Activision and Tencent’s monetization plans, but they have time to sort it out. Call of Duty Mobile won’t replace the mainline games, but it’s fun enough for some quick matches.
It's not too surprising to see King take a lead role in bringing the franchise to mobile devices. The company obviously knows how to make a profitable app — which is why Call of Duty publisher Activision Blizzard bought the company for a whopping $5.9 billion in 2
As indicated by the tweets below, there are a wide range of different Call of Duty maps that are given the Fortnite treatment, with some of the more notable ones including versions of Nuketown, Modern Warfare 2 's Rust, and Shipment. While it's safe to presume that not every multiplayer map from the CoD franchise will get representation in Fortnite via its Creative Mode, should players remain diligent enough, then we may see loads more in the near fut
The mention of Fortnite was inevitable given the game's unprecedented success - though it was more surprising to hear Activision Blizzard's Chief Financial Officer Spencer Neumann mention it in relation to revenue. After reporting on the company's better-than-expected first quarter earnings, Neumann noted that the company has "seen some near-term impact from Battle Roya
