Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s Blackout Mode Is Free to Play This Month
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s Blackout mode is free to play for all of April.
Developer Treyarch has announced that the last-man-standing battle royale portion of the 2018 shooter will be free for everyone to play from 2-30 April.
If you’re playing on console you’ll need an active subscription to PSN or Xbox Live, but aside from that there’s no cost. Just download Black Ops 4 and the Blackout mode will be freely available.
The announcement comes hot on the heels of Treyarch revealing a brand new map for Blackout - Alcatraz - which also goes live today on PlayStation 4, and a little later on Xbox One and PC. If you’re curious about Alcatraz and its seemingly smaller-scale approach to battle royale (last we looked, Alcatraz was a prison, not a huge, multi-biome island), then a free month seems like the best way to satisfy your curiosity.

Meet the Record Label Turning Video Game Soundtracks Into Cool Vinyl
It’s not often artists like Weezer and Courtney Love are mentioned in the same breath as Hollow Knight, Darkest Dungeon and Nuclear Throne. For Ghost Ramp, a boutique record label based in Southern California, representing video games soundtracks alongside traditional music is a typical day at the office.
Founded in 2008 as the music blog of Nathan Williams, the frontman of San Diego punk/pop group Wavves, Ghost Ramp evolved into a fully-blown independent record label in 2011, when it backed a handful of west coast indie acts such as Antwon, Cloud Nothings and So Stressed.
Fast forward to 2015 and Ghost Ramp extended its purview to video games, when Williams and label manager Patrick McDermott – both lifelong gamers – pressed an official limited-edition vinyl run of Austin Jorgensen’s score for the quirky post-apocalyptic side-scrolling role-player LISA.

Avengers: Endgame Directors Wouldn’t Give Tom Holland the Script
Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame directors Anthony and Joe Russo reportedly wouldn’t give Spider-Man actor Tom Holland a script, due to his past MCU leaks.
Reported by ComicBook.com, Joe Russo revealed this information at a Marvel Anthem launch event in India. Considering Infinity War and Endgame were essentially filmed back-to-back, it’s possible he was simply referring to Holland’s lines in Infinity War.
“Yeah, Tom Holland does not get the script,” Joe reportedly said. "Tom Holland gets his lines and that’s it. He doesn’t even know who he’s acting opposite of. We’ll just, we use like very vague terms to describe to him what is happening in the scene, because he has a very difficult time keeping his mouth shut.”
