Five years in, VALORANT is already expanding further than fans could have ever imagined.

Fortnite players remastered Modern Warfare 2 maps better than Call of Duty did

Oct 3, 2024 | ggrecon.com | Jack Marsh |Tom Chapman

Modern Warfare 3 made a valiant effort to reinvigorate the old-school Call of Duty feel when it remastered the entire MW2 (2009) map pool, but it will most likely be remembered for its live-service model that shone throughout the year rather than just at the start. The remastered content didn't quite hit the mark like Activision would have hoped, but that doesn't mean the maps are useless.

Whether it be multiplayer or Warzone, Call of Duty is changing, shrinking, and moving with the times to become a much more engagement-focused title. Warzone's circle is closing rapidly to push out large-scale playlists in favour of Resurgence, despite fans calling for some more tactical LTMs to harbour a slower playstyle.

There have been some weird and wonderful gaming collabs over the years, and Call of Duty is no exception. Alongside everything from giant Gengar beds to Leon S. Kennedy's Resident Evil jacket, Nintendo cereal to custom Final Fantasy Xbox variants that you can't actually play, Call of Duty has given us some corkers. Whether it be Call of Duty jeeps, real-life Ray Gun replicas, or even decoy grenades, we might've found the most out-there piece of merchandise that's only for the most die-hard CoD fan.

Heading into 2025, Riot Games has its fingers in a lot of pies. The fabled League of Legends developer is capitalising on every opportunity to expand its Runeterra universe and that of VALORANT, making a range of new games and cinematic adaptations.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows could get surprising co-op mode after recent delay

Oct 2, 2024 | ggrecon.com | Tom Chapman |Harry Boulton |Jack Marsh |Joseph Kime

Every cloud has a silver lining, and while many are disappointed that Assassin's Creed Shadows has been pushed to 2025, the game's delay amidst controversy could apparently leave room for a cooperative mode to join the party next year. While the idea of a Japan-set Assassin's Creed has been on our wishlist for longer than we care to remember, the beloved concept has gone down in a blaze of infamy due to complaints about its historical accuracy.
