Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has officially launched on PC, PlayStation 5, XBOX Series, and Switch 2. Grab the Windows version on on Steam.

War erupts on the Korean Peninsula as North Korea launches a full-scale invasion that threatens to destabilize the world in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. A young squad of South Korean soldiers fights to survive on the collapsing front lines, while half a world away a vengeful Captain Price wages a personal war from the shadows as he stays one step ahead of those hunting him. As Price’s off-book mission collides with the forces behind the invasion, the war spreads beyond anyone’s control.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Reveal Trailer

Modern Warfare 4 pushes the series into darker and more dangerous territory, bringing long-running storylines to a powerful and emotional breaking point.

The Campaign drops players into trench warfare in Korea, close-quarters combat in New York, high-octane chases through Paris, SAS night raids in Mumbai, and city-wide assaults to reclaim occupied territory. Multiplayer delivers grounded, precise combat where fluid movement, player choice, and greater control define every engagement. In DMZ, players operate as an off-the-books asset behind enemy lines, where every deployment into contested territory forces hard choices about which objectives to pursue, what to secure, and when to get out.

The 3-million-selling tactical FPS released its first major Early Access update, bringing new weapons, vehicles, dynamic weather and major gameplay changes

BULKHEAD and publisher team17 have released season 2 for WARDOGS, marking the first major update for the hugely successful 100-player tactical FPS since its Steam Early Access debut last month.

Players can expect new firepower, fresh tactical opportunities and changes to core gameplay systems as BULKHEAD continues to develop WARDOGS alongside its growing community.

WARDOGS Season 2 Trailer

Season 2 brings a different kind of battlefield to WARDOGS. For the first time, players will have to contend with heavy rain and thunderstorms, changing how they approach engagements as visibility and sound become increasingly important. Thunder can temporarily mask footsteps, creating opportunities for coordinated assaults, flanking manoeuvres and unexpected encounters.

The update also brings four new weapons, four vehicles and three buildable structures to expand the tactical options available to players. These include the T-72B3 main battle tank, Flakpanzer Gepard anti-air vehicle and new defensive fortifications.

For players willing to take a gamble, the experimental Wager Vendor introduces an additional layer of risk and reward, allowing them to stake in-game cash on their own performance for the chance of bigger payouts.

However, Season 2 isn’t simply about adding more content. Following a month of watching how millions of players approach the game, BULKHEAD has made substantial changes to combat balance, progression, teamplay and faction dynamics.

One of the more unusual changes sees the studio actively encouraging players to join Lonestar, the underperforming blue faction, through exclusive cash and XP incentives. The initiative is part of BULKHEAD’s ongoing experimentation with the game’s three-faction warfare and the evolving strategies of its community.

WARDOGS is out now on Steam!

Slitherine today announces Assassin’s Mace has been released. Assassin’s Mace is the third major nation-focused campaign DLC for ICBM: Escalation, following Endless October and United States of Annihilation. This time, the focus is China and its transformation from a country emerging from decades of conflict into a global military and technological superpower. Like the previous campaign DLCs, it also introduces a new set of nation-specific unit cosmetics.

ICBM: Escalation – Assassin’s Mace Gameplay Trailer

Gameplay Changes and Approach

Asymmetric warfare is a major part of the campaign, requiring players to find ways to undermine the enemy’s advantages rather than match their strength directly. China begins as the technologically weaker side and must use strategies such as submarines, anti-ship weapons, and commandos to overcome stronger opponents. Its huge manpower reserves allow players to rely on large numbers of troops when technology is lacking. This creates an important balance between quantity and quality when choosing how to fight.

The campaign also removes research during missions, making for faster, more unit-oriented gameplay. Technology is still gained between missions, allowing China to gradually close the technological gap.
Technological improvement, manpower and time management are fundamental elements that adds strategy depth to the existing gameplay features.

A new campaign: a Century of Conflict

The DLC spans 101 years, with each mission taking place at a pivotal moment in China’s rise.

The campaign begins with the Chinese Civil War in 1946, as communist revolutionaries and the nationalist government fight for control of the country. The Korean War puts its newly established power to the test against a technologically superior coalition. Tensions with the Soviet Union eventually bring former allies into direct confrontation in 1969, while the Third Indochina War demonstrates the challenges of projecting Chinese power beyond its borders.

By 1991, the world changes again as the Soviet Union collapses, leaving China to navigate a new international landscape. The conflicts that follow grow increasingly modern and increasingly dangerous, eventually leading to a confrontation across the Pacific in 2022, another war with Japan in 2031 and a global struggle for energy in 2039. And then comes 2047: Judgment Day.
