Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: Here is a simplified version of the story contents: If someone were to ask me what the last truly great Call of Duty campaign was, Black Ops 2 would be my answer. The recent Black Ops titles have had some standout, mind-bending missions, Modern Warfare 2019 was a solid-if-safe reboot, and Infinite Warfare’s singleplayer deserved more love even if it didn’t feel like Call of Duty. However, none of these compare to the golden era of the...
I Think Call of Duty Zombies Is Lying to Us About These Huge Deaths

While there is undoubtedly value in a tight, linear narrative like what is seen in the brilliant Last of Us games, deliberately convoluted stories can provide plenty of fun long after players have rolled credits. The Kingdom Hearts franchise is notorious for having an engaging but hard-to-follow storyline, as is Metal Gear Solid, the latter of which includes some of my all-time favorite games.

With Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 4 skipping a new map release in favor of reviving Grief, it’s looking increasingly likely that Janus Towers will serve as BO6’s finale.

Since it debuted in 2008, Call of Duty Zombies has regularly introduced iconic Wonder Weapons for players to wield against the undead. Given that some of these weapons have become fan favorites, it is no surprise that they have made appearances outside their original map. The Ray Gun has shown up time and time again, as has its successor the Ray Gun Mark 2.
