A movie based on Sega's Streets of Rage video game has been in the works for years, and now the latest development has unfolded. 

John Wick creator Derek Kolstad is no longer writing the movie, with Sonic the Hedgehog writers Pat Casey and Josh Miller taking over. Additionally, Jeymes Samuel is now attached to direct the movie.

Casey and Miller wrote all three Sonic the Hedgehog movies so far, and are returning for the fourth. in 2027. The three movies have together made more than $1.2 billion at the box office.

Lionsgate movie boss Erin Westerman said the Streets of Rage movie "demanded a bold filmmaker," and they found one with Samuel. Westerman said Samuel is known for his "visceral and explosive style," which makes him a good fit for the movie.

"We are so excited for how he will bring his own memorable take to this beloved video game IP," Westerman said (via Variety).

There is no word yet on the story for the Streets of Rage movie. The beat-'em-up series debuted in 1991 and has spawned three main sequels, the latest of which, Streets of Rage 4, was released in 2020.

A movie called Streets of Rage was released in 1994, but it has nothing to do with the video game series.

Samuel, also known by his stage name The Bullitts, directed the 2021 Netflix Western movie The Harder They Fall, starring Idris Elba, Zazie Beetz, LaKeith Stanfield, and Jonathan Majors. It was his directorial debut for a feature film, and he won the BAFTA for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director, or Producer for it. He also directed 2023's The Book of Clarence.

He's also an established singer-songwriter and composer, having released his own music and composed the music for the Baz Luhrman movie The Great Gatsby starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

The highest-grossing video game movie of all time is The Super Mario Bros. Movie ($1.34 billion), followed by The Super Mario Galaxy Movie ($960 million).

If you're yearning for a modern reinterpretation of Star Fox's rail-shooter gameplay but don't own a Switch 2 to play the upcoming remake, then you'll want to consider playing Wild Blue Skies. Developed by Chuhai Labs and published by Balor Games, the game got a release date during today's The Mix Summer Game Showcase.

Specifically, Wild Blue Skies will be released for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on August 13. Like Star Fox, it's a sci-fi rail shooter starring anthropomorphic animals. In this case, players control a dog named Bowie Stray who is on a mission with the Blue Bombers to stop Grimclaw (this game's version of Andross). They do so during on-rails missions where players have to fly across alien planets and deal with whatever obstacles or gimmicks each level throws at them.

There's a free demo of Wild Blue Skies you can try on Steam. When you play it, you'll find that it's a very polished spiritual successor to classic games like Star Fox. It doesn't reinvent the genre, but at the time of its reveal, it did not need to.

When Wild Blue Skies was first announced last year, the Star Fox series had been missing in action for several years as Nintendo did not seem interested in continuing it. The game also had the pedigree of being worked on by Giles Goddard, one of the programmers of the original Star Fox.

That changed in April, when Nintendo revealed a Star Fox 64 remake for Nintendo Switch 2, simply titled Star Fox. That game is out on June 25, beating Wild Blue Skies to the punch by about a month and a half. Still, Wild Blue Skies won't have its thunder completely stolen, as it's not coming out on any Nintendo systems.

When it comes out on August 13, Wild Blue Skies can serve as a nice alternative for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox players who can't play the new Star Fox. Perhaps both of these games can kick off a renaissance for the rail shooter genre as a whole.

BioWare's Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2, some of the most critically acclaimed RPGs of all time, are reportedly being remade. 

According to PC Gamer, Dungeons & Dragons parent company Wizards of the Coast is specifically working on a Baldur's Gate 2 remake, but states that from what it's heard, a remake of the original game also sounds likely. 

Former BioWare developer and co-lead designer on Baldur's Gate 2 Kevin Martins is said to be involved with the project, having technically already been in the Wizards family as part of the team working on upcoming space-RPG Exodus over at Wizards subsidiary Archetype Entertainment. 

Unfortunately, there aren't many additional details on what these remakes may end up looking like or when they might arrive. The two games are massive in scope and no small feat to remake. One might expect them to play similarly to Larian's smash-hit Baldur's Gate 3, but since that decades-later sequel used Larian's own proprietary engine, it's unclear what route Wizards may go for bringing the remakes to life. For a look at what the original Baldur's Gate would be like in Baldur's Gate 3, there is, at least, a mod for that.

Both Baldur's Gate and its sequel received remasters from developer Beamdog back in 2012 and 2013, bringing modern enhancements like support for high-resolution displays, bug fixes, and cross-play multiplayer for Baldur's Gate 2. The first Baldur's Gate was originally released in 1998, followed by its sequel in 2000. Both are considered seminal classics within the genre and made BioWare a household name for RPG fans.

Considering Baldur's Gate 3's massive success (it won numerous Game of the Year Awards in 2023 and has sold over 20 million copies to date), it certainly makes sense that Wizards would want to try to continue the franchise's momentum. Larian made clear it would not be developing Baldur's Gate 4, and is instead returning to its own fantasy universe for its next game, Divinity. That leaves Wizards in a bit of a tough spot, though a Baldur's Gate 3 television show from Chernobyl and The Last of Us showrunner Craig Mazin and HBO will reportedly be a continuation of the events and storylines from Larian's RPG.

The Baldur's Gate remakes aren't the only D&D games in the works at Wizards. Another sword-and-sorcery project, Warlock, was announced last year at The Game Awards. Meanwhile, Wizards recently canceled a D&D game from Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order director Stig Asmussen's new studio.

If a new map condition in Arc Raiders' Chinese beta is any indication, developer Embark Studios may be testing the waters for a widespread PvE-only mode in its popular extraction shooter.

As revealed via social media posts, the Chinese version of Arc Raiders, which is currently in closed beta, contains multiple modes focused on PvE, including one called "Rebellion Incident" that imposes immediate consequences on those who opt to shoot another player. Known as map conditions, these modes join other rotating events--typically available for an hour or so at a time--that change up the game by adding new modifications to the maps or rules.

https://twitter.com/Babaoisland/status/2060892896430374975?s=20

"Rebellion Incident" has PvP turned off by default, requiring players to press a button to declare themselves hostile before they can damage other players. In doing so, these traitors become permanently exposed on the map and compass, opening themselves up for other players to band together and kill them for their transgressions.

Meanwhile, another mode adds either a King or Queen to the map alongside a Matriarch, unleashing absolute mayhem that indirectly incentivizes players to work together against the chaos. While players can still easily (and sneakily) kill each other in this mode, the fact that it facilitates cooperative play seems to be testing how the game's community reacts to one another when the PvE threats are so intense.

At this time, Embark Studios has not expressed any intentions of bringing these PvE-centric modes to other regions, so they could be beta-exclusive map conditions designed for general testing purposes. That being said, it's equally plausible that the developer is specifically gauging interest in cooperative game modes.

It's uncertain how the Arc Raiders community would ultimately react to the long-rumored addition of PvE modes in the main client, especially considering it appears fairly evenly split between PvE and PvP playstyles. Embark Studios told The Guardian that 30% of players seek exclusively peaceful lobbies, while another 30% actively seek out PvP encounters. Meanwhile, 40% engage in a mix of PvE and PvP.

Either way, it could be some time before Embark Studios adds any substantial changes to the main game anyway, as it has recently announced a move to bi-annual updates.

The second episode of Call of Duty's new Modern Warfare 4 docu-series gives an insider look at Infinity Ward’s development of the game's multiplayer, and the developer shows off gameplay on an ambitious new map that constantly changes in design.

Midway through the video, Studio MP Creative Director Geoff Smith talks about taking Call of Duty's map designs to the "next level" and the creation of the game's Kill Block multiplayer map.

https://youtu.be/NKvnPNzqqTk?si=nSKjaq_hOmMu70NW

"Like how can you keep coming up with map designs and layouts?" Smith asked while discussing map design. "What if we just made one that was living and it keeps changing every time you play it?"

Modern Warfare 4's Kill Block is a map that consists of three "slabs" that are all modular pieces that can be swapped out and connected with other pieces in various different ways. The map will change every match, with the three slabs being randomly decided before a game. 

Smith shows off both real and prototype slabs, giving a behind-the-scenes look at how the map is designed. The developer also boasts that Infinity Ward has the content to do "upwards of over 900" different slabs to feature for the map, but technical limitations will likely bring the number down to 500.

In terms of size, each slab is about the size of Call of Duty's 2v2 Gunfight maps. When all three are pieced together, Smith says the full map size is equivalent to the popular Shoot House map from 2019's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

The video also showcases Modern Warfare 4's movement, which doesn't include wall taps or omnimovement of the recent Black Ops games, but it does include fluid movement and sliding. Additionally, the game also adds the new ability to climb poles.

The developer acknowledges the criticism of Modern Warfare 2's movement. "We took some things away. Some Freedom," admits Co-Studio Head Mark Grigsby. The goal for Modern Warfare 4 was to make the movement feel fluid and unrestricted.

Modern Warfare 4 will launch with multiplayer, DMZ, and a classic "linear-style" campaign. The game releases on October 23 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2. Unfortunately, this means the old generation of consoles are losing support, and Warzone will also no longer be playable on PS4 and Xbox One post-launch.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 preorders are live now, and Activision has also confirmed a “Loyalty” discount that allows players to get 10% off the game’s Vault edition.

A Minecraft Movie's sequel, which was revealed in 2025 under the working title A Minecraft Movie 2, and it has an official name. Revealed during Minecraft Live, the sequel is called A Minecraft Movie Squared. 

That's not all--in a promotional video, actor Matt Berry appeared in a tease for his role in Squared. What that role is, however, remains a mystery. The What We Do in the Shadows actor was supposed to play Steve in the first movie, but had to play a smaller role--a villager who gets hit by a car and goes on a date with Jennifer Coolidge--due to scheduling conflicts.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxqGhDjInjc

Jack Black ultimately landed the role of Steve, and he will reprise the character in Squared. Jason Momoa, who played Garrett, is coming back in that role as well, while Danielle Brooks will reprise her character, Dawn.

Squared is currently filming in New Zealand. Black said in the video that there is a "massive team hard at work taking this production to the next level." Brooks, for her part, said the sequel goes "so much deeper into the Minecraft world," featuring new biomes, new characters, and new mobs. 

Additionally, Kirsten Dunst joins Squared in the role of Alex. After the first movie came out in 2025, Dunst lobbied to be in the sequel because her kids love Minecraft and she wanted to make some big money.

A Minecraft Movie Squared releases on July 23, 2027. That's a couple months after the live-action The Legend of Zelda movie arrives in April 2027.

A Minecraft Movie made $960.4 million in theaters. It ranked as the No. 2 highest-grossing video game movie ever until The Super Mario Galaxy Movie passed it with $992 million worldwide.

With the growing cost of PC hardware and no defined end in sight, AMD is leveraging older hardware and promising extended support of existing platforms as its business strategy for the foreseeable future.

AMD made a variety of announcements at Computex, but two of the most important involved hardware that many PC builders have been familiar with for some time already. AMD announced that its bringing back arguably its most popular CPU ever made, with the 5800X3D AE returning to shelves on 25 June for $350. The AM4 chip was originally released in 2022, and was the first to feature AMD's 3D V-Cache memory technology that boosted performance in games substantially. This re-release gives gamers still stuck on older AM4 platforms a means to upgrade without having to replace their entire system, and leverage the lower prices of older DDR4 memory as faster DDR5 models are swallowed up by the AI industry.

If you have already made the jump to AMD's latest AM5 platform, or are still planning to do so, then a new 7700X3D gives you the cheapest entry point into 3D V-Cache CPU power. Retailing at $330 and launching on 16 July, this slightly cut-down version of the 7800X3D features the same 16 cores and 32 threads, but with 200MHz less core clock speed, and a further 500MHz less on the boost clocks. That might affect very specific CPU-limited workloads, but should be negligible in most gaming scenarios. It's only a fraction less expensive than the better chip, but given how AMD has gone in the past it's likely the 7800X3D will be discontinued soon to allow for the 7700X3D to take its place.

Upgrade to AM5 might not be a terrible idea either, with AMD committing to an extended lifespan for the platform. The company says that it will continue to support AM5 through 2029, giving you over three more years of official support and hardware releases. AM4 has endured far longer than AMD anticipated, and continues to do so with the re-introduction of the 5800X3D. So it's possible that AMD pushes out AM5 support even longer still, especially with the environment PC gaming hardware finds itself in currently.

That's especially true when considering that AMD didn't mention its new platform, AM6, at all during Computex, with the company likely reserving more announcements for CES next year.

A new battle of the billionaires kicks off this week in Monopoly Go, as the game's mustachioed mascot takes on Springfield's sun-blocking tyrant from The Simpsons, Mr. Burns. Scopely has announced a Simpsons crossover in Monopoly Go, which has been created in partnership with the team behind the long-running animated series. Starting June 3 and continuing through July 29, the event will see iconic Springfield locations given a Monopoly Go makeover.

Players can also expect to see the entire Simpsons family and Mr. Burns in the game, alongside other fan-favorite characters. Some of the new gameplay twists include hidden details, deep-cut references, and Easter eggs. Find yourself in jail, and you can even bribe Chief Wiggum to get out of the joint early. 

"Working closely with The Simpsons creative team, our talented game-makers at Scopely set out to do much more than simply place Springfield inside the game; we wanted to build an entirely new shared universe where these iconic characters, stories, and gameplay experiences could cross over," said Victor Diaz-Roig, president of games at Scopely. "Every part of the season was designed with our Tycoons in mind, introducing fresh ways to play the game they love, while opening the doors for Simpsons fans to step into Monopoly Go for the very first time."

https://youtu.be/pDxn0CD41b0

Scopely says that Monopoly Go will feature interconnected gameplay and original Simpsons narratives unfolding across seasonal maps, animated sequences, and sets. Narrative-driven episodes are at the heart of the crossover, as Simpsons-inspired storylines will kick off every two weeks inside of Monopoly Go. From Homer-triggered nuclear meltdowns to Bart and Lisa disappearing inside Krustyland, each episode will be accompanied by collectibles, mini-games, and more than 50 Simpsons-themed Chance Cards.

The crossover will start with the debut of a Simpsons short, written and produced by The Simpsons team. The short sets the stage for the collaboration's narrative, as it sees Mr. Monopoly (voiced by Will Ferrell) go head-to-head with Mr. Burns, in a rivalry that has been brewing for decades. This isn't the first time that The Simpsons have headlined a mobile game--remember The Simpsons: Tapped Out?-- and last year, Springfield's favorite family took over Fortnite for an entire season.

Grand Theft Auto 6's marketing push is set to begin soon, and many are wondering how much Rockstar and Take-Two actually have to do to promote the game given the unprecedented levels of hype behind it. Take-Two boss Strauss Zelnick discussed this in an interview, saying "no matter how big a franchise is," marketing remains important, and GTA 6 is no exception. 

"The consumers need to engage with that prior to release. And I think the motion picture business reflects that as well," Zelnick, a former movie executive, told IGN.

He cited the Mission: Impossible series as an example. It's a famous franchise, but the studio behind would still "spend a whole lot of money" marketing the sequels "even though we kind of know what we're going to get." 

"Marketing is still an important part of any entertainment release," he said. He didn't comment specifically on GTA 6, saying Rockstar itself will make its own announcements later on.

GTA 6's marketing push is set to begin this summer, so it could happen anytime now. Before this, Zelnick said promoting GTA 6 will be a “challenge” because Rockstar and Take-Two want to be “delicate” with how they push the game.

“It has to feel like, you know, this is real. We’re not selling hamburgers. We’re selling this unique art form,” he said.

GTA 6 launches on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. A PC edition has not been confirmed, but history suggests it will come later.

GTA 6 is expected to sell 40 million copies and drive more than $3 billion in revenue during its first year. GTA 6 has enormous shoes to fill, as predecessor GTA 5 has sold more than 230 million copies and generated tons more money from GTA Online.

Developer Rockstar has yet to announce a price point, but Zelnick recently said the game will be price at a “reasonable” level, whatever that means.

Former BioWare veteran Mark Darrah has weighed in with his thoughts on what the AAA video game business can do to make more money and become more sustainable: sell product placement.

In a video on his YouTube channel, Darrah said the fascination with live-service games and "over-reliance on microtransactions" is stopping other genres from flourishing. Development budgets keep going up and up, and without an increase to the current $70 going rate for new releases, developers could look to product placement to help make money, Darrah said.

He said the live-action Smurfs movie "paid for itself entirely through product placement," and he wonders if product placement could become a bigger deal for games.

"So, is there an opportunity for games to take a step back and think about different ways that we could make money? I think there is," Darrah said. "Product placement is a very small part of video games right now compared to movies and television. Maybe it could be a larger part of development. Maybe there are relationships there to be formed."

Product placement in video games does already exist, and a recent high-profile example was 007 First Light, which featured many famous real-world brands just like the movies do. The game's budget is unknown, but a recent report said it was the most expensive piece of entertainment ever made in Denmark.

Mario Kart 8, meanwhile, featured a Mercedes-Benz partnership, while Alan Wake had Verizon and Energizer in-game product placement. Death Stranding featured Monster Energy drinks in the game.

Beyond product placement opportunities, a Bank of America stock analyst has said GTA 6 should cost $80 to help encourage other companies to raise prices to help with the sustainability issue.

Take-Two's Strauss Zelnick said major new releases have actually come down in price over the years when you consider how inflation has affected pretty much everything else you buy these days. Games have held steady in the $60-$70 range for 10 years, and that “doesn’t make a whole lot of sense,” according to Zelnick.

"Everything can't be a live-service"

Darrah went on to say that no one wants to see a video game industry dominated by live-service games. 

"Everything can't be a live-service, which is something I hope we've proven pretty definitively over the past year and a half, and if monetization is coming predominantly from live-services, we run the risk of living in a world where there are no AAA games that aren't live-services. And I don't think that's a world that any of us want to live in," he said.

Also during the video, Darrah said PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass are not doing all that much for developers in terms of money, and that developers taking deals to come to either program could encourage "degenerative design in order to try to juice the numbers."

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has said it was a "miss" for Microsoft to re-commit to showing the logos of its competitors during Xbox broadcasts, going on to say the company is now looking at how to "adjust" this for future events.

"Seeing the feedback on logos. It was a miss, and I own it. We are talking about how we adjust for future Xbox shows," she wrote.

https://twitter.com/asha_shar/status/2060501522556022919?s=46

Sharma said this on the same day that Microsoft published the newest Xbox Podcast in which Xbox chief content officer Matt Booty doubled down on showing the logos of competitor consoles during the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase on June 7.

"Yes. Absolutely. We'll be very clear about what platforms a game is coming to. We want to continue the precedent; I think we have a good system going where we make it clear [what platform a game is coming to]," he said.

In February 2025, Microsoft said it would start showing PlayStation and Nintendo logos during official broadcasts as part of a transparency effort that many fans and industry observers praised. Apart from the Xbox events, it remains commonplace for gaming showcases from platform holders like PlayStation and Nintendo to only show their own logos, even if their games are multiplatform. This was seen as shifty, and many praised Microsoft for changing the tide.

Other people did not embrace the change, saying it was important for Microsoft to speak directly to its loyal consumers and show them preference. With Sharma taking over as Xbox CEO, she has promised a "return to our roots" and has said Xbox-exclusives could return.

So when Booty re-committed to the transparency push for the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase, some people were upset, prompting Sharma's response. That very response hasn't gone over entirely smoothly, though, as many are saying she is ultimately doing Xbox a disservice by trying to appease fanboys.

The Xbox Games Showcase takes place this coming Sunday, June 7, and it will be immediately followed by a presentation focused exclusively on Gears of War: E-Day.

Mojang's blocky sandbox game is currently inaccessible--a rarity for Minecraft. The last major widespread Minecraft outage was in October 2025, when the global Microsoft Azure cloud disruption affected services, including Minecraft authentication and Xbox Live.

Around 12:30 AM PT on June 1, players began to report problems with launching Minecraft via Downdetector. Attempting to connect to the game via the Minecraft Launcher shows the message, "Oh no! Something went wrong, and we couldn't connect to the Minecraft services. Please connect to the internet to refresh your offline access." A further error message reads, "We were unable to verify what products you own. Please check your internet connection."

https://twitter.com/rsdworker/status/2061382916035256762?s=20

The two messages suggest an issue with the authentication servers, meaning players will be unable to log in or may experience problems in Realms, servers, or multiplayer sessions. This issue is also affecting those opening Minecraft from a third-party launcher, such as Prism or Curseforge.

At the time of writing, nothing has been posted from the official Mojang Support X account. We'll continue to monitor the problem.

Bandai Namco's Tekken team has had several high-profile departures over the past year. First was assistant director Yohei Shimbori in August of 2025, followed by Executive Director and the "face of Tekken" Katsuhiro Harada--who recently revealed his new studio in partnership with SNK. Today, another Tekken developer and fighting-game veteran has officially announced his departure.

Kohei Ikeda, known among fans under the moniker "Nakatsu," has worked at Bandai Namco for over 20 years--primarily on the Tekken series but also contributing to games like Soulcalibur IV and the Project X Zone titles. He served as both game director and chief producer on Tekken 8. But that tenure appears to be ending, as he announced in a post on X, in both English and Japanese, that he is leaving after two decades with the company.

https://twitter.com/nkt_dreamer/status/2061296807259595212?s=20

"Becoming part of the company I had always admired--[Bandai] Namco--was truly a dream come true," he wrote. "Dedicating ourselves wholeheartedly to game development together remains one of the most cherished experiences of my life."

While Nakatsu didn't give a definitive reason for leaving the company, it does not mark the end of his career in games development as he also said he will "continue to take on new challenges" in the field.

While Tekken 8 has been a sales success for Bandai Namco Games--and it's getting plenty of future DLC support, including the recently-announced Yujiro Hanma guest character--there's also been a lot of controversy surrounding the gameplay direction from longtime players. With Ikeda's departure, there's sure to be a lot of speculation on who will step up to assume his mantle, and where the future of the Tekken series will be headed.

During today's Minecraft Live broadcast, Mojang dropped some small teasers about a new biome coming to the blocky sandbox game this fall.

While the next Minecraft update, Chaos Cubed, is officially set for release on June 16, this fall sees the arrival of the Dappled Forest--a cozy red, green, and yellow forest environment that houses some new structures, new Poplar trees, and by extension, the Poplar wood blocks to construct with.

Minecraft's new Dappled Forest biome.

Those structures, known as Abandoned Camps, are, well, abandoned camps. When you stumble across one of these in the wild there'll be a handful of chests left behind by former explorers with some goodies inside.

Mojang didn't mention what the rarity of those goodies might be, but with other forest structures, like the Woodland Mansions, you can often find diamond gear, rare music tracks, the Vex armor trim, and enchanted apples--all pretty sought-after stuff.

An Abandoned Camp in the Dappled Forest.

The drop will be focused on playing with friends, and given that Mojang recently added a direct peer-to-peer connection to its Java Snapshots feature, before removing it a few short days later, it seems likely this feature will be implemented in the fall drop. Mojang also says that the drop will focus on exploration and adventure, although it didn't go into more detail on what that means.

This year’s annual Call of Duty release--Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 4--is set to arrive in just a few months. But according to a new report, Modern Warfare 4 may give players the chance to start the campaign during an early-access release period.

Well-known CoD leak and news site CharlieIntel shared a screenshot of a “Campaign Early Access” pass on Xbox, which appears to be one of several packs available for installation. However, there's no mention of that pass on Modern Warfare 4’s official store page on Xbox. Instead, the store states that players who preorder the digital version will get early access to the open beta. It wouldn't be the first time campaign early access has been available for a Call of Duty game, however--Modern Warfare 2 had a similar program back in 2022, for instance.

The details about Modern Warfare 4 have only begun to come out, but developer Infinity Ward is aiming to put players back into the shoes of ordinary soldiers rather than the larger-than-life action heroes from some of the more recent games. Infinity Ward has also laid out some key improvements and quality-of-life adjustments for MW4, including movement and gunplay. Black Ops 7’s omnimovement is being dropped from MW4. The Prestige system is also getting a big change.

Some of the announced cast members for MW4 include Shrinking’s Luke Tennie and The Last of Us’ Young Mazino in leading roles as Lieutenant Wet and Private Park, respectively. The game will also feature supporting performances by Prisca Kim, Lanny Joon, William Lipton, and Barry Sloane, who will reprise his role as Price.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will be released on Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC on October 23. Preorders are already live, and unlike Black Ops 7, MW4 will not be a day-one release on Game Pass. Infinity Ward has also assured players that MW4 runs smoothly on Switch 2.
