Activision has launched a brand new teaser page for the next Call of Duty. You can find it right here.
At present, there’s not much to see on the site. There’s a countdown that will expire just under three days from now (Sunday), and there’s also a scrambled image featured.
No goodies hidden in the source code, sadly. It does state that fans will be able to watch the “world reveal” on May 4 though.

Watch Dogs will be available on most platforms later this month – except for Wii U. Ubisoft hopes to ship the Nintendo version of the game later this year.
While speaking with Red Bull Games, Watch Dogs creative director Jonathan Morin shared a new status update about the Wii U version of the game. He told the site that Ubisoft is now “fully focused” on finishing the project and the company is “making sure it gets the attention it deserves to make it the best version it can be.”
Morin’s comments in full:
“Right now [the Wii U version is] currently being done, but I’m not directly involved. We wanted to finish all the platforms that we are currently shipping. We needed those guys to get [the shipping versions] finished, and the good news now is that they’re all fully focused on the Wii U version, making sure it gets the attention it deserves to make it the best version it can be.”

Japan’s Mario Kart 8 campaign differs from North America and Europe
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 11 Comments
In North America and Europe, when you register Mario Kart 8 on Club Nintendo, you can receive a digital copy of another free Wii U title. The selection varies in both territories, though the promotion is ultimately the same.
It’s a bit different in Nintendo’s home country. For Japanese Wii U owners, they can get their hands on two games, but only to play for a month. Then one of these titles can be purchased for 40 percent off.
It’s interesting to see Nintendo try out these kinds of approaches. Hopefully we’ll see similar opportunities in the future!
