Activision has posted a video teasing the fourth and final DLC pack for 2013’s Call of Duty: Ghosts, Nemesis.

The video shows a series of flashing game-related icons over the sound of a spinning game wheel while a carnival barker announces: “Round and round it goes! Where it stops…somebody’s gonna die!”

Nemesis will include four new multiplayer maps, each with unique field orders, such as “Goldrush”, a twisting network of tunnels and mine shafts wherein you can call down a pack of vicious wolves upon your opponents. “Showtime” turns up the heat by reimagining the smallest map in Call of Duty history, the Modern Warfare fan favorite “Shipment.” Nemesis also concludes alien invasion saga of the DLC Extinction mode with “Episode 4: Exodus” where you’ll make humanity’s final stand against the Cryptid onslaught.

This rounds out the DLC package for Ghosts, which has added, among other content, multiplayer maps, gameplay modes, Predator, and Snoop Dogg. Nemesis will arrive exclusively for Xbox consoles on August 5 for $15 alone or as part of a Season Pass package, with other platforms to follow. The new content should tide you over until Sledgehammer Games’ follow-up, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, comes out on November 4.

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.

Characters on Ashika Island in Warzone 2.0.

Activision has released a new Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 update that nerfs the game's best long-range weapons: the Cronen Squall and the ISO Hemlock. Specifically, the damage across both weapons has been reduced, making them both less effective in all situations.

The news comes from the battle royale game's latest round of patch notes, which outlines the new changes to the weapons. There are some major implications to those changes, though the updates aren't as devastating as they might initially seem. Here's every tweak that was implemented in the new patch.
