Battle royale goes big.

The next entry in Activision's renowned shooter franchise, Call of Duty, has been officially unveiled ahead of its scheduled release this fall. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 will revive the fan-favorite series, fully embracing its multiplayer success, while exploring new online modes such as "Zombies". A battle royale mode called "Blackout" is also part of the package.

According to the publisher, Blackout delivers signature Call of Duty gameplay immersed in classic environments and characters from the Black Ops universe. The first gameplay trailer focuses on some famous characters and gimmicks, like the monkeys.

  • Don't know what to think. Could be good.
  • Nice trailer but I don't know, it's Call of Duty...
  • Ok, I am NOT a CoDookie fan at all and I was not planning on buying CoDookie 4 at any time. But I'd be lying through my teeth if I said that this trailer didn't rip my mind apart and poop down my neck. I mean, holy freeholies! What DOESN'T this mode have in it?!? They took battle royale and threw everything into it. It looks insane! If I do buy CoD 4, it would ONLY be because of Blackout.
