The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare in-game charity campaign raising money for the Australian bushfire crisis has come to an end, and it brought in a lot of money. Activision has announced that the campaign raised more than $1.6 million through sales of the “Outback Relief Pack.”

The money will go to the charity Direct Relief. The group is already putting the money into action, as Activision said Direct Relief is providing emergency and health supplies across Australia.

“Call of Duty players around the world came together in support of this terrible tragedy. We’re honored to help in this effort with the funds from the Outback Relief pack,” Call of Duty executive Byron Beede said in a statement. “We thank everyone for their generosity, and we look forward to putting this donation into action.”

Direct Relief’s Thomas Tighe said, “This was an astounding act of generosity on the part of Activision and the larger Call of Duty community, and we at Direct Relief are deeply grateful. Most importantly, the Call of Duty community’s amazing support will translate directly into help for people in Australia.”

The Outback Relief Pack, which was sold throughout January, included a Bushranger operator skin, a koala charm, and the blueprints for the legendary “Big Game” sniper rifle. There is also a new sticker, gun art, operator quip, and finishing move, as well as a token to skip one tier in the Modern Warfare Battle Pass. It cost about $18 USD.

The bushfire crisis is an ongoing concern in Australia. As of February 4, there were 62 bush and grass fires burning in New South Wales, 29 of which are not contained.

Microsoft discounts a large selection of Xbox One games every week, and while this week’s deals consist mostly of THQ Nordic titles, there are also quite a few for games like Mortal Kombat 11, Injustice 2, and the Batman: Return to Arkham collection. On top of that, those with an Xbox Live Gold subscription–Xbox Game Pass Ultimate includes Gold–can pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare at a fantastic price as well.

Titles under the THQ Nordic umbrella account for the majority of the deals. Darksiders 3 is discounted to $19.79, while its remastered predecessors are even cheaper. Darksiders Warmastered Edition is just $4, and Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition is down to $6. If you haven’t played Darksiders, now’s your chance to grab the first three games in the franchise for under $30 total.

While Darksiders is the most well-known THQ Nordic property in the sale, there are more gems to be found. Itching to play a clever platformer? You can grab de Blob for $4 and de Blob 2 for $7.49. Monster Jam Steel Titans ($20) and MX vs ATV All Out ($9) are available for those looking for a new racing game.

Meanwhile, fighting game fans can snag Mortal Kombat 11 for $23 (was $60) and Injustice 2 for $12 (was $40). Batman: Arkham Collection, which compiles all three stellar Rocksteady Batman games, is discounted to $24. EA Sports’ NHL 20 and FIFA 20 are each 50% off at $30.

As always, select deals are only available to Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. The biggie this week is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare for $39.

It’s rare to find good deals on an upcoming PC game before it’s even released, but digital games store Green Man Gaming is making that a reality for a limited time. The retailer just kicked off a 48-hour flash sale that includes discounts on some of 2020’s biggest games.

Notably, the sale includes steep markdowns on Resident Evil 3 and Doom Eternal, two of the most anticipated games releasing this year. Resident Evil 3 is 25% off, available for $45, and Doom Eternal is 20% off, down to $48. Both games are releasing in the next few months–Doom Eternal will release on March 20 with Resident Evil 3 following soon after on April 3–so you won’t have to wait long to play these titles.

The flash sale also includes the newly released Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, which is $50.39 (16% off), and the critically acclaimed Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, which is marked down to $34 (15% off). You can also save on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, which is $37.79 (37% off).

The limited-time flash deals overlap with a larger Lunar New Year sale at Green Man Gaming, which ends February 3. The sale includes discounts on Devil May Cry 5, Rainbow Six Siege, the upcoming Elder Scrolls Online: Greymoor, and more. You can check out more of our picks from the sale below.

Infinity Ward hat am Abend nicht nur ein Playlist-Update für Call of Duty: Modern Warfare veröffentlicht, sondern auch einen neuen Patch aufgespielt. Die Patch Notes liegen bereits vor – und somit alle Änderungen und Neuerungen. Mit dem Update schrauben…

Kompletter Artikel: Call of Duty Modern Warfare: Neuer Patch und Playlist-Update – das sind die Änderungen

Infinity Ward has released the latest Call of Duty: Modern Warfare update on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, and in addition to refreshing the game’s playlists, it makes some balance changes to weapons, fixes bugs, and more. The patch notes have been revealed and, in addition to these adjustments, Infinity Ward also addresses spawn points on the Shipment map.

Headlining the update are changes to Modern Warfare’s playlists. The modes Deathmatch Domination and Gunfight Custom have been added, while Capture the Flag finds a new home in the “Quick Play” filter. Shipment has replaced Shoot the Ship as the game’s 24/7 map and the wintry Gunfight map Winter Docks has been removed. All of these adjustments are now live across all platforms.

When playing on Shipment, you’ll hopefully encounter fewer spawn traps and instant deaths. Infinity Ward says it’s changed spawn locations in all modes, and Domination in particular features new logic for spawns.

Elsewhere, the patch modifies a few of Modern Warfare’s weapons. These include decreasing the M4’s headshot damage, reducing the MP5’s headshot multiplayer, increasing the M13’s headshot damage, altering the number of bolts necessary for the newly-added crossbow to take out support helicopters, and more.

Finally, a couple of minor bugs have been ironed out in this new Modern Warfare update. An ATV exploit in Ground War has been resolved, missing character models for certain skins have been fixed, spawn points on Shipment have been adjusted to “reduce the frequency of instant deaths and spawn traps,” and more. Check below for the full list of changes in the game’s latest patch.
