Best PS4 Games to Have on Your Radar in October 2018
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4
The most popular video game series in the world needs no introduction, but Black Ops 4 is looking to shake up the series more in October 2018, than any entry in years has. The biggest change, of course, is the removal of a single player campaign, and the addition of an ambitious Battle Royale mode, Blackout. This mode brings together characters, maps, and elements from across the Black Ops series.
Throwing 80 players together on a massive map, like the typical Battle Royale mode players or squads have to fight it out to see who the last one standing is. Of course, all of this comes with the tight gunplay and weapons of Call of Duty. If Blackout works properly online, and is supported properly, it could easily end up rocketing to the top of the Battle Royale genre. However, Treyarch will have to do enough to make Blackout stand out from the rest of the pack.
That’s not all Black Ops 4 brings, of course, as it also has the usual full-fledged multiplayer mode and three different campaigns for zombies. Some small but meaningful changes to multiplayer has each player choosing a specialist to play as, and making the overall experience feel a tiny bit more like a hero shooter. Mechanics have also been slightly altered to have more of a tactical and teamwork focus.
Despite the lack of a single player campaign, Black Ops 4 is absolutely packed with content to dig into. Fans of multiplayer shooters could easily find it to be one of the best PS4 games of October 2018.
