The first salvo of downloadable content for Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Ghosts is set to arrive on January 28 for the Xbox 360 and Xbox One, the developer confirms on Twitter. The Onslaught pack includes four new multiplayer maps, a couple of new guns, and the first add-on “episode” – called Nightfall – for Extinction, the game’s “kill all the aliens with guns” survival mode. A post from the developer on Instagram offers a brief look at what we’re guessing is Nightfall. The pack will be available for other systems in the coming weeks, although a specific date was not released.

The name of the Extinction episode and details of the rest of Onslaught‘s contents comes from a reportedly leaked GameStop poster, spotted by a Twitter-using COD fan, advertising the new content (via Charlie Intel). According to the poster, the four new maps are: Bayview, Containment, Fog, Ignition. For weapons, you get the new Maverick assault rifle and Maverick sniper rifle.

Onslaught falls under the lineup of content coming via Ghosts‘ Season Pass. Three more content packs will follow it over the course of 2014.

The ISO 45 SMG is the newest weapon added to Call of Duty: Warzone during Season 4, alongside the Tempus Razorback rifle. This SMG is, as expected, ideal for close-range encounters in Warzone, and it's perfect for the new Vondel map. As always, building weapons with the best attachments can be an overwhelming process, but this guide is here to help. This is the best ISO 45 Warzone loadout.

Call of Duty made Crash Team Rumble a better multiplayer game, says dev

Key art for Crash Team Rumble

Crash Team Rumble initially feels like a unexpected diversion for the long-running Crash Bandicoot series, but it’s a lot more fun than you might expect. I went hands-on with Crash Team Rumble at Summer Game Fest Play Days, and once I got the hang of its Wumpa-collecting match objectives, I had a blast discovering winning strategies with my teammates. Still, it feels like a pretty significant shift for developer Toys for Bob, which spent the 2010s working on Skylanders, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, and Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time.

The best Tempus Razorback loadout in Warzone

With the launch of Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4 comes the new Tempus Razorback assault rifle, which is available for free as part of the battle pass. You'll want to use this weapon mainly in fast-paced midrange situations, as it can be a little harder to control when firing at long-range. Still, you can build it to function well at around 45 meters or so, making it a competitive choice on the smaller maps. This is the best Tempus Razorback build in Warzone.
