Call of Duty Black Ops 3 might be 2015’s mandatory CoD sequel
Few things are 100% certain in this life, but the fact that we can expect a new Call of Duty title to pop up each year is as close as it gets. Not that long ago I would have said that this franchise is absolutely incapable of bringing anything new to the table, but since Advanced Warfare was overall pretty good, I think I might give Call of Duty another shot just out of curiosity. Having said that, the first clues in regards to this year’s mandatory sequel are not necessarily all that promising (at least as far as I’m concerned) since they hint at Black Ops 3 as opposed to something a bit more different like Advanced Warfare was. In any case, there isn’t any confirmation just yet, but let’s take a look at what the clues have to say.
A Youtuber who goes by the name of Drift0r has recently uncovered that Call of Duty Black Ops 2’s latest update brought some very unusual changes to the game. Specifically, some posters on a couple of maps have been modified to show a Snapchat link that redirects anyone who scans them to the official Call of Duty account. Drift0r believes that this is the first phase of a new marketing campaign for the next Call of Duty title. As for why this presumably points at Black Ops 3 instead of a different series, the reasoning is mostly because the links only seem to show up in Call of Duty Black Ops 2 despite the fact that it’s not the latest title in the franchise.
In addition, we already know that Treyarch Studios are handing the development of this year’s Call of Duty title. This brings some more credence to the speculation given that this is the same studio responsible for both previous Black Ops games. Granted, this isn’t exactly solid evidence for anything, but if the Youtuber’s prediction is correct, we should hear something more concrete about Call of Duty Black Ops 3 via social media in the coming days. We’ll just have to wait and see. Meanwhile, you can check out the said clues in the video below and judge for yourself if they are enough reason to get excited about or not.

Joker’s Free Suicide Squad DLC on PS5
There hasn’t been much buzz surrounding Suicide Squad since its release in February. Warner Bros. was let down by the game’s underwhelming sales, but they remained committed to turning their live service vision into a reality. An exciting new DLC update has been released, introducing The Crown Prince of Crime to the game.
As the game’s first live season begins, players will have the chance to take on Green Lantern and, in the end, unlock The Joker as a playable character. Which Joker are you referring to? This is quite intricate. Furthermore, players can look forward to the inclusion of a Battle Pass, a variety of new shop items available for purchase, exciting Incursions and Strongholds to partake in, as well as an expanded selection of Infamy Sets and Notorious Gear to amass.

Gran Turismo 7 for the PS5 and PS4 shows continuous improvement
While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.
The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.
If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.
