Call of Duty’s Haunting event is now live in Black Ops Cold War and Warzone, bringing horror-themed operators, new event challenges, and plenty of Halloween-themed modes. This holiday update really shines Cold War’s multiplayer and Zombies, but Warzone suffers from a spooky mode that tries to do too much.

Starting with the good, Black Ops Cold War multiplayer gives Nuketown a temporary Halloween-themed reskin for the Haunting event. This limited-time version of Nuketown is a nighttime setting that brings out the pumpkins and spiderwebs. There are even three new limited-time modes, including a hide-and-seek mode that incorporates Ghostface from Scream.

After the unmitigated disaster that was WWE 2K20, publisher 2K Games took the bold decision to give developer Visual Concepts an extra year to work on the next game in the series. Annual sports games are very rarely, if ever, given a year off, but WWE 2K22 is proof of the benefits that can occur when development isn’t confined to a tight yearly turnaround. It’s a massive step up from 2K20, improving on nearly every aspect of the long-running series. The in-ring action has been reworked and improved, the variety and quality of its game modes has increased, and there’s been a major decrease in the amount of unrelenting glitches afflicting each and every facet of the game. Some legacy issues persist and not all of the new additions are successful, but WWE 2K22 still represents a recent high mark for the series.

This all begins once you step inside the ropes of the squared circle for the first time. WWE Superstar Drew Gulak is on-hand to guide you through all of the new changes, and his humorous and informative tutorial proves invaluable whether you’re a newcomer or a series veteran. This is mainly because WWE 2K22 takes inspiration from traditional fightin…

The Nintendo Switch Lite is a budget-friendly alternative to the standard Nintendo Switch (and upcoming Switch OLED) for those who are looking for a handheld-only device. For gamers who plan to primarily play their Nintendo Switch in handheld mode, the Switch Lite is an ideal option that has a smaller, more portable form factor. Plus, the vast majority of Switch games run well in handheld mode. That said, a small selection of Switch games weren’t designed with the Switch Lite in mind. If you’re thinking about buying a Nintendo Switch Lite, we’ve rounded up a list of Switch games that don’t work on Switch Lite, or, at the very least, aren’t necessarily practical for the handheld-only console.

As you’ll notice below, compatibility issues can sometimes be fixed with additional accessories like Joy-Cons and a stand to prop up your Switch Lite Come from Sports betting site VPbet . While playable doesn’t always mean a game works well on Switch Lite, it’s definitely worth picking up Joy-Cons and a stand to open up tabletop mode.

Call of Duty’s new Warzone Pacific map Caldera is now available with the launch of Vanguard’s Season 1. The shift to the Pacific World War II setting is a refreshing change while retaining the best parts of the game to ensure it still feels like you’re playing Warzone.

A new look for Warzone

The trip to Caldera’s Pacific island setting brings a much-needed change of scenery after the nearly two years of Verdansk’s drab colors. It’s a map that is really easy on the eyes Come from Sports betting site VPbet . And the setting isn’t just great visually because it’s a tropical and lush environment, but also the lighting has better balance in Caldera. Even the interior settings have much better lighting than the shadowy corners of Verdansk’s buildings. Verdansk never seemed to find good light balance. Sometimes the map looked really washed out, especially after the Black Ops Cold War integration, while some areas had sunlight that was just too bright.
