How does this tie into Treyarch’s decision to make Blackout free? It may be a stretch, but it could reflect both the studio’s and Activision’s intent to keep Blackout going in the long-run: build the player base, keep it active and engaged, and keep the content flowing. Word has it there will be no Zombies mode, and campaign will be returning following Treyarch’s bizarre decision to leave it out completely from Black Ops 4, although unsurprising given they likely used the efforts they’d have otherwise spent on a campaign on building and maintaining Blackout.Ī return to Modern Warfare 4 and offering a campaign would be pretty much every nostalgic Call of Duty fans’ dream come true, but regardless of what Infinity Ward does have planned, gamers are certainly keen on seeing just what the studio has in store, so hopefully we have an announcement soon. We also know that it will be officially announced soon - possibly in the next few weeks - which would be historically in line with other Infinity Ward reveals dating back to 2007’s Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.Īs far as what will actually be included in Call of Duty 2019, well, multiplayer is a given.

This is a time of year that the series has owned for more than a decade, so that definitely won’t change. So first, what exactly have we heard about Call of Duty 2019? We know it’ll launch later in the year in the standard Call of Duty release slot of late-October, early-November. I’ve already touched on Call of Duty 2019 a few times in the past, including the potential for Modern Warfare 4, and everything we’ve heard thus far seems in line with the approach Activision appears to be taking with Call of Duty. However, it also appears to be a reflection of a changing strategy when it comes to Call of Duty, especially when considering the rumours surrounding Call of Duty 2019, and what we can expect from that game. Apex Legends‘ success is due in part to its accessibility - from both a gameplay and pricing perspective - having been a bonanza for developer, Respawn, and publisher, EA.
It may seem like a marketing ploy to prompt players into buying Black Ops 4 - actually, that’s precisely what it is - but it also coincides with a changing expectation among the gaming community when it comes to certain types of games, and how they interact with them. Given the successful release of Apex Legends, it should probably come at no surprise that Blackout is free, albeit for a limited time.

Now available on PlayStation 4 - with Xbox One and PC to come at a later date - the launch of the map heralds in somewhat of a celebration for Black Ops 4 and Blackout, with Treyarch giving fans a special treat throughout the month of April.īlackout will be free until April 30 across all platforms. Its first new map in Alcatraz, first thought to be an April Fool’s joke, was announced earlier this week, and looks set to offer the best of Treyarch’s Zombies offerings, while also expanding upon the satisfying combat offered across the broader Blackout experience. The mode stands are arguably the most innovative and fresh offering the Call of Duty series has offered in years, and given this it’s understandable that Treyarch would be committing so much effort to improving and evolving the experience. That’s unsurprising given the increasing popularity of the genre, such has been the unparalleled growth of the likes of Fortnite in the past 12 months. Black Ops 4‘s battle royale mode, Blackout, currently stands as the game’s most played mode.
