It’s been rough journey through space for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. After a reveal trailer that became the most-disliked video in YouTube history, it started to seem like the shooter series’ push into outer space was a push too far. Activision eventually called it “the wrong game at the wrong moment.”
Gesture Warfare, the mode in which players kill each other with in-game gestures like smushing players with their fingers or zapping them from a distance by throwing up a finger gun, is returning to Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare through October 12.
The Beast From Beyond zombies map that closes out Call of Duty Infinite Warfare’s run of map packs reintroduces players to the alien Cryptids from the Extinction mode in 2013’s Call of Duty: Ghosts. That’s cool, but it does so in a way that makes even the early rounds of the map hard to enjoy.
The final DLC pack for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare will arrive for PlayStation 4 on September 12. The “Retribution” map pack, which includes four maps, will send players to an ice planet in the final chapter of the Infinite Warfare Zombies saga.
There’s a sweet spot that lets you camp or take a break from zombies on Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s “Attack of the Radioactive Thing” map. The Death Ray Cannons found on the map are used for the main Easter Egg quest, but one Death Ray will offer protection if you stand in front of it. The zombies will simply…
Two beloved game modes in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered—Prop Hunt and Slasher—may become permanent additions depending on fan votes. Prop Hunt, in which one team spawns as inanimate objects and the other team hunts them down, is in the lead! Vote for Prop Hunt or for Slasher via Twitter before August 1st.
You can now roast a delicious marshmallow in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. The new “Roasted” gesture lets you make a well-done summer treat, courtesy of Call of Duty‘s Days of Summer event, which runs until August 1.
On Sunday night, Call of Duty commentator Jack Campbell announced his departure from the esports scene and his plan to deactivate his Twitter account. Campbell’s love life has become a topic de rigeur for Call of Duty fans in the past month, in spite of Campbell’s attempts to stave off fans’ speculation. The situation…
The fan-favorite Prop Hunt mode returned to Modern Warfare Remastered on June 30 as part of Call of Duty’s “Days of Summer” event, which runs until August 1. In addition to disguising themselves as trash or furniture on a map for a wacky game of hide and seek, players are being trolled by one map with outlandish…
Infinite Warfare’s June 27 update had a hilarious, disastrous bug: the Proteus rifle would automatically kill every enemy in a player’s view if it was fired from the hip. Players slid around the maps taking out everybody in single shots. Infinity Ward patched it out later that evening, but the video evidence remains.
A competitive Call of Duty team made history over the weekend by becoming the first European team to win a major tournament on U.S. soil.
It’s like the Call of Duty version of extreme couponing. Last weekend, Infinite Warfare’s Double XP weekend allowed many players to stack up bonuses and challenges to snag over a million XP from just one multiplayer match. One enterprising streamer even racked up 2.5 million XP in a single game.
The $49.99 season pass for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare gets you four map packs with four new multiplayer maps each. What it doesn’t guarantee is that these new maps will actually come up in multiplayer matches online. In my experience so far, playing a DLC map is like finding a unicorn.
Imagine, for a moment, that Activision announced this year’s Call of Duty last year, back when they were also announcing last year’s, too. Madness, you might think, but is it any less mad than what actually happened?
Shaolin Shuffle, the latest map for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s Zombies mode, has players performing some rather un-Call of Duty-like tasks in order to access all of its secrets. Tasks like playing an ersatz version of Candy Crush. Or even mahjong.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s second map pack, released today, brings us a game mode filled with the sights and sounds of 1970's New York City, kung fu superpowers, and the undead. For developer Infinity Ward, which has struggled with Zombie mode in the past, it’s a new beginning.
For April Fools’ Day, Call of Duty turned its players into literal trash. And now fans are begging to become garbage again.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s second DLC map pack, Continuum, launches April 18 for PS4, with other platforms to follow. There are four new multiplayer maps, as well as new zombie content, Shaolin Shuffle, starring Pam Grier.
I’ve played every Call of Duty for the last decade, dropping countless hours into the multiplayer modes of Activision’s first-person shooters, always ranking my accounts up to the maximum Prestige level. But Infinite Warfare’s microtransactions make me think I’m going to break that streak.
