COD: Warzone 2.0 World Cup Game Mode Announced for Season 1 Reloaded

Modern Warfare 2’s Season 1 Reloaded is not the only thing CoD fans can look forward to in December. An upcoming game mode for Warzone 2.0, titled “Call of Duty: Warzone Cup,” is set for the Season 1 refresh as well. The game mode will pit players against each other in team-based gameplay, but with a surprising twist.

Free-for-all players, Warzone Cup completely switches things up as it brings Operators together for some sporting fun. Players who are skilled in vehicular combat will have the edge, as long as they have equally skilled squadmates.

Warzone Cup pits two teams of three Operators against each other at Al Easima Field, where each Operator will drive an ATV as they attempt to knock a massive soccer ball into the other team’s goal within an eight-minute time limit. The first team to five goals, or the team that gets the most goals within eight minutes wins.

A few screenshots of the game mode have also been revealed on the game’s official blog, along with a bit of info on how the game mode works.

Here’s how you’ll be able to control your character in Warzone Cup:

Unlike other Call of Duty modes, there are no Loadouts or traditional weaponry in this mode. Instead, each ATV is equipped with a pulse ability that sends a powerful burst of energy toward the ball or other ATVs. Combined with simply ramming objects with the ATV, this energy pulse can help redirect the ball toward fellow squadmates or away from your goal.

Operators also have one of two ways to disrupt their opponents:

– If an Operator rams into an enemy player at top speed, they destroy that Operator’s ATV, temporarily removing them from the pitch and forcing a respawn.

– Operators can pick up Shock Sticks around the stadium, which can be thrown at enemy ATVs to temporarily disable their movement.

While Call of Duty is a multiplayer shooter at heart, the Warzone Cup game mode should give players a nice break from the usual gameplay. Call of Duty: Warzone Cup is expected to be available when Season 1 Reloaded starts until December 23.

For the upcoming Season 1 Reloaded patch that’s coming tomorrow, we’ll be sure to keep you updated, so stay tuned.

Update: Dates have been updated to reflect that the World Cup mode is set to become playable today until December 23. Apologies for the confusion.

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but for those looking forward to playing Hogwarts Legacy on last-gen platforms (PS4, Xbox One), you’ll have to wait a wee bit longer, as WB Games has announced that while the current-gen (PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC) versions have now gone gold, the last-gen versions won’t be released until April 2023!

Here’s the official announcement from WB Games Avalanche:

Some updates on PS4, Xbox One, & Switch release dates for Hogwarts Legacy. We want to deliver the best possible experience to the entire community, no matter which platform they choose. That said, we’re excited to announce the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC versions have gone gold!

Hogwarts Legacy will launch on April 4, 2023 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and on July 25, 2023 for Nintendo Switch. The team is looking forward to bringing you the game and we want to deliver the best possible game experience across all platforms.

For more clarification, the Nintendo Switch version will have its own release date of June 25, 2023. This was confirmed in the game’s updated FAQ:

Q: What platforms will Hogwarts Legacy be on?
A: Hogwarts Legacy will be available for PlayStation5, PlayStation4, PlayStation4 Pro, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One consoles, Nintendo Switch and PC.
 
Q: When will Hogwarts Legacy be available?
A: Hogwarts Legacy will launch on:
February 10, 2023 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC
April 4, 2023 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One
July 25, 2023 for Nintendo Switch
This is definitely a bummer for those that still don’t have a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S (or a capable PC). That said, it’s better to delay the game than have it rushed. 
 

Go check out 20 minutes of new gameplay right here. There’s also going to be a new gameplay showcase airing tomorrow at 10 am PT/1 pm ET/2 am HKT. Once we know more details, we’ll let our readers know.

Madden 23 Update 1.09 Jumps Out This December 13

EA has deployed Madden 23 update 1.09 (PS5 version 1.009) today, and given that we just got a meaty update last week, don’t expect much from this outside bug fixes and the like. Read on for the Madden 23 December 13 patch notes.

Madden 23 Update 1.09 Patch Notes | Madden 23 Update 1.009 Patch Notes | Madden 23 December 13 Patch Notes:

Update 2: EA has said that they have narrowed down the issues impacting Franchise leagues, though it still hasn’t been fixed.

Update: Here’s the latest update from the dev team, which doesn’t include today’s changelog just yet:

So far, the studio hasn’t mentioned what’s in today’s title update, but did announce that there was server maintenance incoming today:

Server Maintenance is scheduled for 6:00 AM ET tomorrow, Tuesday, December 13th.

📌 Solo Battles will be gated at 5:30 AM ET.

Please complete all games before maintenance begins.

In addition to the maintenance, the dev team has also confirmed that there is a Competitive Field Pass XP glitch, which could be one of today’s fixes:

Hey Mark,

Yes, the XP on the Competitive Field Pass will go towards the Zero Chill Field Pass. It is a graphical error that the team is looking to address.

Once we know more regarding the patch (be it the official patch notes or details from the community), we’ll be sure to update the article.

‘Tis the season! It’s time to kick off our second edition of Yulidays, our in-game Festive Event running from December 13th to January 2nd.

We’d like to preface this patch by emphasizing this is a returning event from last year, with some new additions, to celebrate the holiday season together. In the meantime, we’ve been hard at work on our next big update… more on that below. 👀

Yulidays SHiFT Codes: Mániklo and Sóleyra Shields 

Did you know? The goddess Freyja was so enamored with her immortal feline companions that she would often dress her children up in costumes of them, even after they became full-grown adults. It’s a totally true story. 

It turns out, she also bestowed two SHiFT codes upon the land of Midgard especially for you this Yulidays season! 

How to Redeem:
