Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, from SEGA and Sonic Team, promises a roster-packed kart racer with transforming vehicles. Its new “Travel Rings” mechanic warps players mid-race into alternate tracks. It launches September 25, 2025, across PS5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC.

In recent months, there has been more than one suggestion from members of the games industry that Call of Duty games are “lazy," and that the threat of EA's rival shooter, Battlefield 6, will force a change in approach from Activision.

The brand returned to the biggest consumer gaming event that takes place annually in Cologne, Germany, with a first look at Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and new gameplay for The Outer Worlds 2, Ninja Gaiden 4, and a new DLC for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, called The Order of Giants.

Black Ops 7' at gamescom 2025, hailing it as the series' boldest step in over a decade. Set in 2035, the campaign introduces mind-bending fear-toxin missions inspired by Batman's Scarecrow, with warped cityscapes and surreal horrors alongside new movement mechanics such as Mega Jumps and wall runs.

A new Call of Duty Black Ops 7 trailer shows off the return of jetpacks and robot fights, and confirms its launch date for later this year.

Black Ops 7 is set 40 years after the events of Black Ops 6's campaign, but there's already one strong connection between the two games.

We talk to Call of Duty developers Miles Leslie and Natalie Pohorski at gamescom 2025 to find out how Black Ops 7's co-op campaign takes cues from the Batman Arkham games by using fear toxin as the basis of the weirdest COD missions we've seen yet.

Activision accidentally leaked an advertisement for Black Ops 7, confirming release date, mechanics, and more features ahead of the big Gamescom reveal.

Join Miles Leslie, Associate Creative Director at Treyarch and Natalie Pohorsky, Lead Producer at Raven to learn more about Black Ops 7.

More than 300,000 visitors are expected at this year's gaming extravaganza, flocking to try out blockbuster releases like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and test new hardware such as the Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Handheld.

Weapons, operators, XP tokens, GobbleGums (Zombies), skins and other cosmetic items from last year’s game will be usable in Black Ops 7’s multiplayer, as well as Warzone. This will kick off a few weeks post launch, with the start of Season One.
