Will ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’ Have Zombies?
You knew it was coming. With Activision pushing out another Call of Duty game this Fall with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, the inevitable question arises: Will there be zombies? Never mind the fact that Activision and Black Ops 4 developer Treyarch have said very little about the game (which will be revealed on May 17th), let alone whether we’ll be getting a Zombies Mode. Leave it to Twitter and the official E3 Twitter page to start the rumour mill.

It would seem rather counterproductive to have a retrospective at E3 on the popular game mode, and not announce it as being part of the game itself at E3, now would it? In fact, it would appear that Black Ops 4 could potentially have a greater focus on the mode and other modes instead of a ham-fisted single-player campaign. It’s all speculation at this point. So until Activision reveals the game later month, and we finally hit E3, it’s another case of Rumour Control.
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
