The Daily Moot: Black Ops Cold War PlayStation-Exclusive Game Mode
News Picks1. Black Ops Cold War Zombies Onslaught
Call of Duty has revealed Zombies Onslaught, a new game mode which will be exclusive to PlayStation in the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. Described as a “two-person, fast-paced Zombies experience,” Zombies Onslaught will enable players to earn special rewards each season, and players will be ranked based on how many elite zombies they’re able to take down. Unfortunately for PC and Xbox players, Zombies Onslaught will be exclusive to PS4 and PS5 for an extremely long time, with other platforms forced to wait until November 2021 to get access to the new game mode. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is set to launch on November 13; you can check out the trailer for Zombies Onslaught below.
2. Fortnite Marvel Integration Donald Mustard, the worldwide creative director for Epic Games, has unveiled some of the studio’s future plans for Fortnite. Specifically, Mustard explained that Nexus War is only the beginning of Fortnite’s major crossover with Marvel, and said that the teams “have planned for many years of Marvel integration.” This not only reveals that Marvel will likely have a permanent foothold in the Fortnite universe, but also that Epic Games has already come up with “many, many, many years” worth of content and lore for Fortnite. Mustard also mentioned that “the island is the main character” in Fortnite and that it will go through a protagonist’s “traditional arc,” so players can likely look forward to many more significant changes to the Fortnite island in the future.

The call of duty franchise still having PlayStation exclusivity is interesting considering that cod runs on an ID software based engine but doesn’t that mean it should default to Xbox now?
The game engine that cod uses is based on the ID software engine which is a part of Bethesda that Microsoft is trying to purchase
wtf why tho
like a skin is fine to be exclusive but a mode?zombies and new apex legend, very very interesting...
it's probably a cash grab since everyone is leaving playstation lol
Excited Xbox players suddenly realizing that Zombies Onslaught is Playstation exclusive
Lol Xbox players mad they not getting it until a new cod comes out
Not mad just confused I personally don’t care I play for fun and if I really wanted to play the mode I’d go to a friends house I’m just confused cause isn’t the call of duty engine modeled after the ID software engine so shouldn’t it now be under more influence by Microsoft?
