Over the past couple of weeks, Blizzard Entertainment has been hosting a Spooktacular Savings event at Battle.net, slashing the prices of several highly rated games with discounts ranging from nearly to over 50%.
These discounted games include DOOM: The Dark Ages ($46.89), Diablo IV ($24.49), and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 ($34.99), and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 ($38.49) until the end of October 15, 2025.
Why these games are worth buying and playing
All these games on offer on Blizzard Entertainment's Battle.net platform have something for everyone, whether they're into first-person shooters, RPGs, or sports titles.
Let's start off with DOOM: The Dark Ages, the latest entry in the DOOM series. This dark fantasy shooter is a beautiful and bombastic action game that offers dozens of hours' worth of brutal demon slaying goodness.
The art direction is sublime, the story is gloriously over-the-top fun, the combat system is brutal and challenging, and gameplay keeps refreshing itself with sections where you ride giant mechs the size of buildings and cyborg-dragons into battle.
If that last part doesn't sell you on this game, I don't know what will.
Next, we have Diablo IV, one of the most critically acclaimed titles in Blizzard's recent history. This is a dark fantasy action-RPG absolutely oozing with gothic atmosphere, endless hours of dungeon crawling content and enemies to slay, and an in-depth, addicting combat system.
It's also constantly being updated with new content every few months so you never run out of gameplay to indulge in, some of which include crazy crossovers with Starcraft 2 and even Berserk.
Let's turn our attention to something more light-hearted with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, a two-pack remake compilation of the 3rd and 4th entries in the Tony Hawk series.
These games reimagine these classic sports titles with improved graphics and controls, cross-platform multiplayer mode, expanded Create-A-Skater and Create-A-Park modes, and 40 playable skaters to play as including Tony Hawk, Michelangelo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and even the Doom Slayer from Doom.
Lastly, we have Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the latest entry in Call of Duty's Black Ops sub-series.
This is regarded as one of the best games in the series for its epic, action-packed single-player campaign, improvements to movement and accessibility, and its content-rich Multiplayer and Zombies modes in Black Ops history.
If any of these games take your fancy, they're all available for various discounts during Battle.net's Spooktacular Savings event at the following prices until the end of October 15, 2025:
- DOOM: The Dark Ages ($46.89)
- Diablo IV ($24.49)
- Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 ($34.99)
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 ($38.49)
On a side note, there's other items on offer during this event including paid cosmetics for World of Warcraft, discounts for older Call of Duty titles, and much more.
