After entering the 21st century, the development of technology has been so rapid that it is beyond imagination, and the benefits brought by this development are reflected in all aspects, not only making your life more convenient but also making your entertainment more diverse. Take playing video games as an example, in fact, it might be hard for people 20 years ago to imagine that there are now six or seven choices of gaming devices alone!
Among all gaming devices, PCs and various controllers that need to be connected to the display are more troublesome and cannot be carried around for experience, while mobile phones, iPads and handheld game consoles are more convenient because of their smaller size - if you are a game fan, you must know that Nintendo Switch is the most popular handheld game console.
At present, some games on the market are designed specifically for Switch, while some games are first supplied to other devices and then logged in to Switch. This means that if you are a fan of both the latter game and Switch, you may always be looking forward to their early cooperation, and one representative of this type of game is Genshin Impact.
When Genshin Impact was first released in 2020, it could be experienced on mobile (Android & iOS) PC and PlayStation 4, and it was announced that it would land on Nintendo Switch in the future. However, it is now 2025, and although Genshin Impact has been launched on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles before, the Switch plan of Genshin Impact has not yet been realized. However, the recent release of Switch 2 information seems to allow you to see the dawn of this plan.
Like its predecessor, Switch 2 is a hybrid game console that can be used as a handheld game console or connected to a TV or monitor. It is similar in appearance to Switch 1, but the screen size is expected to increase by about 33%, and other hardware details will be fully upgraded.
There have been many rumors about the specific launch date of Switch 2, and it has not been determined, but at least you can be sure that it will be better than the first generation in all aspects. In addition, although Nintendo has not yet announced which RPGs will be first launched on Switch 2, and HoYoverse has not announced the next plan for Genshin Impact and Switch 2, if the two are still planning to cooperate, then Switch 2 is definitely better than 1.
The first generation Switch was released in 2017. Although it was evaluated as one of the most innovative game consoles ever at the time, it was eight years ago, after all. Nowadays, Switch 1 cannot compare with PlayStation 4&5 or Xbox series game consoles in many aspects, so the birth of Switch 2 is inevitable.
In addition, devices are improving, and games are expanding. Compared with five years ago, Genshin Impact now has higher requirements for devices in terms of memory and performance. Perhaps this is why Genshin Impact was not finally released on Nintendo Switch - the rapid expansion speed of releasing patches every six weeks makes it increasingly unlikely that Genshin Impact will be ported to Switch 1.
You might be thinking that even without a Switch, playing Genshin Impact on PC is also great, after all, the bigger screen will make the experience better, but you only need to check the number of characters in your Genshin Impact Account to dispel this idea - the high storage requirements brought by the growing number of characters means that the PC may also experience lags. However, as the latest game console to be born, the Switch 2 is expected to introduce modern hardware, allowing popular Gacha games such as Genshin Impact to run smoothly.
If the Switch 2 can really achieve hardware advancements, it will not only run the current Genshin Impact smoothly but also adapt to the frequency of future updates of the game. In fact, there are rumors that the Switch 2 will even be able to run large games such as Metal Gear Solid Delta and Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
Since its launch, Genshin Impact has been compared by players with Zelda: Breath of the Wild developed by Nintendo, because the two games have many similarities in open world design and exploration. Even though Genshin Impact focuses more on Gacha elements and becomes more and more different from Zelda as it develops, some people still suspect that Genshin Impact is a copycat.
Regardless of the credibility of this suspicion, the combat, character development and narrative structure of the two games are now very different, which has completely opened up the own fan base of Genshin Impact. Therefore, Nintendo can completely regard Genshin Impact as a strong competitor to its own Zelda series - Genshin Impact is even completely free outside of Gacha elements, while Zelda is not.
In this way, whether Genshin Impact can be logged in to the Switch series is actually not related to the performance of devices, but involves intellectual property disputes. If so, then you may not have the opportunity to play this RPG developed by HoYoverse on any Switch.
But you don’t have to worry about it. After all, there are many game choices now. In fact, you can play Zelda on Switch and Genshin Impact on other devices to fully experience their different charms, give your own game review, and make your gaming experience more meaningful.
As a fan of Pokemon Go, I recently heard some very bad news: Niantic announced that it had sold its gaming division to Scopely, which is part of the Saudi investment fund.
And Scopely acquired Pokemon Go for $3.5 billion. But I don’t have a good impression of the developer, so I am worried about the prospects of Pokemon Go.
In fact, before the outbreak, the thriving player community was all over the world. However, after the outbreak, everyone was forced to stay indoors. Since then, Pokemon Go has been on a downward trend.
As its fans, this situation is something we don’t want to see. And what’s more frustrating is that the game has changed a lot.
Paid tickets have long been a part of Pokemon Go, and I don’t dislike them. Although this is a free game, the developers also need to make money to keep the game running and developing.
And we always find ways to play every event for free. Of course, there will always be some loyal fans who are willing to spend money to get more rewards and game experience.
However, the new changes in the game annoy me. As everyone knows, Pokemon Go PokeCoins are very important in the game, which you can get by battling in gyms or completing quests. But getting 50 coins a day is a big deal because it is not easy to get.
Coins can be used to trade premium tickets for any event of your choice, but now you can’t use coins to trade event passes. Forcing us to trade back with real money greatly undermines the motivation of free game players like us to continue working hard and reduces our enthusiasm for participating in the game.
It is undeniable that the new changes in Pokemon Go reflect predatory and exploitative nature, trying to squeeze as much cash as possible from us players.
And the worse news is that Pokemon Go was acquired by Scopely. I guess everyone has seen the true face of Scopely. It is profit-oriented, such as ads that can be skipped for a fee and premium items sold directly.
The end of being acquired by it is foreseeable that Pokemon Go will become a game of paid entertainment. I can imagine that if you spend enough money, you’ll get Legendaries easily, and Master Balls will be readily available. But that takes away from the fun of struggling in the game.
Will the future of Pokemon Go get worse? Let’s wait and see.
With the launch of EA Sports FC 25 Winter Wildcards, the developers also launched Winter Wingback I.
It is a new Evolution. Its update brings players a great opportunity to upgrade your right back card and improve the overall data of these players you have, making it easier for you to win in the game.
In addition, this Evolution also provides players with two new PlayStyles and launches a new Wingback Roles++, and the highest overall that players can achieve is 85 and pace is 93.

The following will introduce 7 players who are most suitable for this evolution from the aspects of Card variant, Overall Rating, Position and Rating after Evolution for you to choose.
The English right-back has performed amazingly during his time with Manchester City and won many games during this period. Therefore, he is the best candidate for you to choose in Winter Wingback I Evolution.
Before evolution, Kyle Walker’s overall rating is 84, but players can increase his overall rating to 86 by completing some challenges.
And, after the evolution is completed, his speed can be increased to 90, physical can reach 84, dribbling and defending can both be increased to 84, and pace can reach 83.
This Dutch footballer also performed very well in the 2023/2024 season and is one of the indispensable and important players of Bayer Leverkusen team. Thanks to his important contribution, German team maintained a 51-game winning streak and also led the team to Bundesliga championship and DFB-Pokal during this period.

After evolution, his pace can reach 93, 83 defending, 86 dribbling and 83 passing, which allows him to play not only RM position in the game but also RB position.

Giovanni Di Lorenzo is not only one of the strongest right-back players in Serie A, he is also the captain of Napoli.
In this FC 25 Winter Wildcards, his Card variant is Inform, which is also the best player you can choose from the Inform card you have.
After he completes the evolution, his overall rating can be increased from 85 to 86, and his pace can be increased to 90, 83 passing, 89 physical, 84 defending and 84 dribbling.
These data show that he has great potential as an RB and can help you win the game.
Denzel Dumfries is also one of the very important players in Inter Milan. Inter Milan’s outstanding performance in the game is also inseparable from the efforts of the fullbacks in the team.
This player has an overall rating of 84 in the 2024/2025 season, but after evolving, it is expected to increase by another 2 points.
After completing a series of tasks, you have the opportunity to get an excellent player with 83 passing, 90 pace, 89 physical, 84 defending and 84 dribbling.

He is perfect for RB position, as he is not only good at attacking but also very good at defending. After the evolution, his stats are 90 pace, 83 passing, 86 physical, 85 defending, and 84 dribbling.
This Moroccan player is known for his amazing speed, and as a result, he has become one of the best right backs in the world.
He is the best offensive right back you can find in Winter Wingback I Evolution. His overall rating before evolution was 84, and after evolution it can reach 86.
After the evolution, some of his highlights are: pace can reach 91, physical reaches 85, dribbling reaches 84, and defending reaches 83.
This Spanish player may be one of your most cost-effective choices in this Winter Wingback I Evolution. Because he can not only play as RM, but you can also let him play as RB.
In this regard, the developer gave him an overall rating of 83, which can be increased to 86 after the evolution is completed.
Some of his basic numbers include 90 pace, 85 physical, 84 dribbling and 84 defending. Through these numerical information, you will find that you can use him to defend the opponent’s players in the game.
If you want to win more games by evolving the full-back in this evolution, then be sure to pay attention to the above 7 excellent players.
It is expected that Genshin Impact version 5.3 will be launched in a week. The new version will launch new characters, new activities, new weapons and new costumes. At the same time, old characters will be re-launched so that players who missed it can replenish their character pool.
The first set of wish banners will launch two new limited five-star characters, Pyro Archon Mavuika, and Citlali. Before this, there was no version that launched two limited five-star characters at the same time. This is the first time. In the first stage of version 5.3, Mavuika and Citlali will be launched one after another, without re-run characters. In the second stage of version 5.3, two re-run limited five-star characters will be launched. They are Arlecchino and Clorinde.
Arlecchino is a character who can cause very large fire damage, and Clorinde is a powerful electric character and very attractive. For players who don’t have enough Genshin Impact Genesis Crystals, choosing to get new version characters or replenishing characters from previous versions may be a painful choice.
This banner will also allow you to get a new four-star character: Lan Yan. Lan Yan is from Chenyu Vale, and she mainly relies on moving quickly on the battlefield and swirling elements to fight. She can also provide shields for other characters in the team, making her a versatile character. Players will get to know her better in Lantern Rite.
In addition, the development team also confirmed that the protagonist will get the fire element in 5.3. Because in Natlan, the protagonist did not get a new element after interacting with the statue, which has not happened in other regions. Players seem to be able to enhance the newly obtained element by completing other tasks in Natlan.
In addition to the two new banners above, Genshin Impact 5.3 will also launch Chronicled Wish. Although the specific date of Chronicled Wish has not been announced, the character has been announced. For most players, the biggest surprise is the fateful return of Shenhe and Ganyu. They have not appeared in limited banner reruns for a long time.
Shenhe last appeared in version 3.5, and Ganyu last appeared in the banner in version 3.6. This means that players will not have a chance to get them again with more than 30 banners.
Chronicled Wish was originally designed to accommodate characters, although they had already received multiple reruns. However, the developers decided to make an exception for Shenhe, because she has only been rerun once since her release, and many players have been hoping to get this character.
In addition, Chronicled Wish will also bring players numerous five-star weapons for players to wish for.
Natlan Archon's quest may come to an end in version 5.3. Players will join forces with Mavuika to repel Abyss’ incursion. The details of the story have not been revealed, but it may end with a fight against Lord of Eroded Primal Fire. This monster will become a weekly boss.
The annual Lantern Rite will be launched in version 5.3. Lantern Rite will bring many changes to the decorations of the entire game world, and players can also get many Genshin Impact Genesis Crystals through the new Lantern Rite event.
At the same time, both Hu Tao and Xiangling can change new outfits. Xiangling’s outfit can be obtained for free through the event, while Hu Tao’s outfit is discounted in the store.
In addition to Xiangling’s outfit, players can also get a free four-star character in Liyue region in Lantern Rite (players can use this event to claim Lan Yan). Gamers on PlayStation, Mobile and PC will also be able to get a pair of new wings. This wing was previously available to Xbox players.
Lantern Rite will bring players many mini-games as always, including some puzzle mini-games and combat trials. Players can obtain materials and Genesis Crystals. At the same time, players can interact with multiple playable characters.
New Quality-of-Life will be launched in version 5.3, which makes it easier for players to cultivate their characters. During Overflowing event, players can get the materials they want instead of waiting for a specific day. At the same time, during the event, the drop rate of character talent materials and weapon upgrade materials will be doubled. But this will still depend on the daily rotation of each region.
After version 5.3, world bosses (also known as 40-resin bosses) will spawn immediately after players claim materials. Players no longer need to teleport to another place and come back for these bosses to spawn. This allows players to obtain boss materials faster.
In addition, the upper limit of players’ artifact storage cap will also be increased, which is good news for players who repeatedly go to dungeons to get perfect artifact rolls.
Version 5.3 will bring a lot of new content to players. From new characters to optimizations to game systems, there is also a rich Lantern Rite, which will definitely attract some old players to return. (Of course, the most important thing is the ten free wishes) Genshin Impact players may feel very fulfilled in the first month of 2025.
Path of Exile 2 provides players with numerous class choices and gives players a lot of freedom in building characters. This also makes some players confused about how to better choose to upgrade characters.
But fortunately, if you keep learning and trying, you will find that your build will be more flexible.
Given the variety of options provided by the developers for players, you will definitely be curious to test what happens when the same character is equipped with different skills and passive skills.
Then we have to mention Passive skill trees. If you see Passive skill trees for the first time, you will definitely be a little overwhelmed. Because it has a lot of passive skills, and there are many passive skills that you can upgrade.
However, after you have a deeper understanding, players will find that this is a very simple passive skills tree. Because no matter what class the player chooses, the passive skills tree will provide you with many options and allow you to play freely.
Witch is a powerful class in POE 2. If you are interested in this class, then you must not miss the following content, which can help you upgrade Witch faster.
Witch is a class that excels at using spells to deal physical and chaos damage to enemies. So, when you want to level up your class, you need to focus on any passive skills that can upgrade spell, physical, and chaos damage.
In addition, since this class mainly relies on spells to deal critical hits, you also need to upgrade spell critical chance and damage when you level up your skills to increase your spell damage value.
If you are currently in the early stages of Witch, it is recommended that you make sure to upgrade physical and critical damage first to increase the damage of Bonestorm spell. This is probably the best way to level up Witch in the early stages.
First, you can use Raw Destruction skill, which can help you increase your spell damage by 16%. Then, you can break down your casting skill targets into Jagged Shards and Practiced Signs to better increase your casting speed and spell critical hit effect, causing more physical damage to enemies.
In addition, if you want to further enhance the spell critical hit ability of Witch, you can progress up Practiced Signs path until you reach Critical Overload. Of course, you can also choose to take the shortcut on the right and upgrade Potent Incantation skill to upgrade spell damage.
However, if you want to increase spell crit and cast speed, it is recommended that players choose the real upward path and upgrade Sudden Escalation.
Because this will allow your Bonestorm spell to deal a lot of damage to enemies, helping you kill enemies faster and win POE2 Currency rewards.
Of course, you can also continue to use passive skills such as Cut Bones, Blood Tearing, and Shredding Force to help you upgrade more physical and critical strikes.
For early stage Witch, Contagion and Bone Cage are the strongest damage output skills. Contagion will cause enemies to receive DoT chaos damage.
And when enemies die, this damage will spread among them to hurt more enemies. Soon, players will find that the entire enemy team will be infected with Contagion and they will attack you painfully. At this time, it will be easier to kill them and win.
Bone Cage is more suitable for melee combat. It can not only prevent enemies from getting close to the player but also cause some effective damage to the enemy. Bone Cage will cause physical damage to the enemy when it hits a critical hit, which is very consistent with the character attributes you build through the passive skill tree.
When the player reaches level 7 skill, it is recommended that you give priority to Bonestorm. Because this skill is the core damage output skill in Witch build.
Although it takes a certain amount of time to cast the skill, once the player releases the skill, the enemy will be torn into pieces, which has extremely strong damage.
If you are facing a boss at this time, Bonestorm can help you kill the enemy faster, because it only takes four or five times to defeat the enemy.
Similarly, if you want to summon more Bone Spikes when releasing the skill, it is recommended that you can upgrade the casting speed in the passive skill tree to achieve it.
Of course, Bonestorm can also cause critical hits and physical damage, which makes it one of the skills that cannot be obtained in build Witch.
If you have unlocked Bonestorm, because you have better spells, Contagion will slowly disappear. But don’t worry, in the late game, you can unlock Dark Effigy to create a totem that casts chaos damage on enemies that have been infected by Contagion.
This is the most useful spell among Witch's many skills. Because it can cast critical hits continuously and has no cooldown limit. This also allows players to cause more damage to enemies when casting critical hits.
And this chaos spell does not affect your build because it takes 2 to 3 seconds to set up and run automatically.
Finally, for a class whose core skill is damage output, adding a curse that allows players to ignore enemy armor is very necessary.
Of course, you can also choose to add random affixes through POE 2 Exalted Orb to enhance your rare equipment and increase your chances of killing bosses.
In addition, upgrading Vulnerability can help you maintain your ability for a few seconds, and in these few seconds, you can cast at least 2 Bonestorm spells.
For additional skills, it is recommended that you consider Raise Zombies and Skeletal Warriors. Because when you cast other spells, it often takes some time.
During this time, you are very vulnerable. Therefore, you need to get some defensive minions to help you hold your ground. They will chase the enemies away, and the scene will become a battle scene instead of just running around shooting dead enemies.

As we all know, Intelligence is the core attribute of Witch. Because the class needs it to play Wands and Sceptres and unlock more spells. And the profession is very dependent on mana, and Intelligence is the attribute that increases mana.
At the beginning of the game, you need about 20 Intelligence points to unlock the skills and equipment of Witch.
When you reach Act 2, which is the middle stage of the game, you need to increase Intelligence to about 55. At this stage, you can use many Uncut Skill Gems in the game.
Finally, you need to reach about 120 Intelligence to unlock all the game content related to Witch.
The second most important attribute for Witch is Strength. Because it can help you improve your vitality and help you increase your combat time.
In addition, many auxiliary gems of Witch require corresponding Strength or Intelligence points to be opened. So Strength is more important than Dexterity, which most people choose.
In order to protect Witch well when casting skills, it is recommended that you use Meat Shield and Last Gasp for your followers to enhance their stamina and provide you with enough time to cast skills.
The above is what you need to pay attention to when upgrading Witch. If you want to upgrade Witch faster, you can try these tips!
Recently, the developer has officially announced an exciting news: New World: Aeternum Season 7 is coming soon, this is a brand new season, called Season of Conquerors.
It is revealed that the upcoming new season brings many new content and features, including PvP-focused Seasonal Worlds and some important upgrades to Expeditions.
At the same time, bugs that may occur during the game are also fixed to improve the player’s gaming experience.
New World was launched about 3 years ago. After its release, it achieved excellent results, but then the number of players showed a downward trend.
Despite this, the developer has not given up on upgrading and improving New World, and continues to provide New World players with many content updates and quality improvement services, including an expansion titled Rise of Angry Earth.
The expansion allows players to expand the basic game content of New World, including rideable mounts, new weapons, new quests, etc., to enrich the player’s gaming experience.
October 15th is a milestone day for New World. The developers released a new season - New World Aeternum. It re-enters the players’ field of vision with a brand new identity and many improvements.

This Seasonal World focuses on PvP. You can only join PvP and flag for PvP when you are level 15. In addition, the ability to obtain powerful equipment and additional compensation will be dropped after your unfortunate death is introduced.
So, if you want to quickly upgrade to this standard to open the new feature experience, it is recommended that you can keep enough New World Aeternum Coins in advance to help you complete tasks faster in the game to achieve the upgrade goal.
The most exciting thing is that after this season, although these worlds will be closed, the characters you choose in this world will be able to be transferred to the permanent world of your choice!
It has been revealed that players can also look forward to some seasonal events, including Legacy of Crassus, Rabbit’s Revenge, and Siege of Sulfur event.
Legacy of Crassus is aptly named. You, as an adventurer need to challenge Roman general and his cyclopean allies to seize top loot and obtain upgrade rewards, including up to 700 Gear Score.
Rabbit’s Revenge is one of the fan favorites, and it’s back with new gameplay, including special rewards for hunting mischievously corrupted rabbits.
The new season also adds Siege of Sulfur, which requires you to team up with at least 10 max-level players to protect sandworm eggs from sulfurous enemies.
In addition, the developers have added a preview weekend section to Outpost Rush map for the new season, which gives you a sneak peek at the layout changes and new gameplay content after the game is updated.
In addition, for players with Season Pass, you can also unlock exclusive rewards, including free and premium tracks. You can not only have Hercyne-themed tool skins, mask skins, and tent skins, but also get Transmog Tokens, dyes, and consumables and New artifacts: Otzi and Heceta.

If you are very interested in New World: Aeternum Season 7, which the developer has worked hard to launch, then set the alarm and look forward to its launch!
The Rust King is a powerful enemy you will encounter in Act 1 of Path of Exile 2. As its name suggests, this boss is covered in rusty armor. Defeating The Rust King you will get Rune Skull Cap, a POE 2 Item required to complete Secrets in the Dark quest. If you want to unlock all Runes of Power in the game, you must face this enemy.
Some friends may not know about The Rust King yet. It doesn’t matter. If you need to challenge it, you can take a look at this guide. You will learn about The Rust King’s location, attribute characteristics, attack methods, and tips for defeating it from this article.
In POE 2, The Rust King is located in Red Vale area of Act 1. You will encounter it during the main quest: Secrets in the Dark. It guards Rune Skull Cap, and you must defeat it to complete the quest.
You will see three Obelisks of Rust in Red Vale, which are strange structures that attract dark creatures in the area. You need to interact with these three Obelisks to activate them. Once all Obelisks are activated, you will find The Rust King nearby.
Now you are about to fight The Rust King. In order to better defeat him, let’s learn about the basic characteristics of this boss!
You will see that The Rust King is wearing heavy armor (even though they are rusty). As you can imagine, this boss has good resistances. The Rust King can resist physical damage and light fire damage.
The Rust King can also summon various weapons (even though they are also rusty) to attack you. The damage caused by these weapons is physical damage. You need to take this into account when preparing defensive equipment.
The Rust King has good mobility. It can quickly close the distance between you and it and continue to chase you during the battle. In order to avoid attacks from The Rust King, flexible movement is important.
The Rust King is weak from lightning, so you can try to use this to defeat it.
When preparing your gear, you need to consider the above points comprehensively. Choosing the right equipment before the battle will get you twice the result with half the effort. If you can’t find the right equipment, you can try to use Chaos Orbs to modify your equipment randomly.
Caster like Sorceress may be more advantageous in this kind of battle, and you can use skills such as Spark to attack The Rust King from a distance. In addition, carrying equipment with stun effects can also help you take more initiative in the battle.
The Rust King has four skills, namely Swipe, Lightning Barrage, Multiple Sword Summon and Ancient Ezomyte Summon. The following will introduce you to these skills and tell you how to deal with them. This will help you get more POE2 Currency in the game.
This is the most common action of The Rust King, where it will swing its arms to attack you. This action has a small damage range, so you can avoid this damage if you are far away from it.
Before launching this attack, The Rust King will raise his arms to his chest. Watch carefully, and when you see him do this, quickly back away to avoid damage.
The Rust King will raise his arms to release flashes of lightning that will damage you.
Although these lightning bolts look powerful, the signal for this skill is very obvious. The Rust King will stop moving before releasing the lightning barrage. When you see him stop, immediately dodge to a farther place.
The Rust King will summon multiple weapons above his head and have them shoot at you from all directions. This looks scary, but you won’t take much damage from being hit by a single weapon.
You need to pay attention to your position, seize the opportunity to stand between the swords, or make accurate blocks and dodges to avoid being hit by too many weapons.
The Rust King will summon an army of Ancient Ezomytes to attack you.
This is a bit troublesome. These Ancient Ezomytes do not cause much damage and are slow, but they are in large numbers. They will continue to interfere with you, and you have to fight The Rust King while avoiding these summons.
Therefore, please try to deal with these smaller enemies quickly and don’t let them disrupt your combat rhythm. While dealing with these Ancient Ezomytes, you also need to pay attention to the position of The Rust King.
Pay attention to dodge and try to avoid standing in front of The Rust King. This will help you minimize damage from the boss.
After defeating The Rust King, besides Runed Skull Cap, which is a must-have item for completing Secrets in the Dark quest, you can also get uncut gems and a random gear.
Now you have a more comprehensive understanding of The Rust King in Path of Exile 2. As long as you master the attack characteristics of this boss, it is not difficult to defeat it. So, take your weapons and enter Red Vale to start your adventure! Good luck.
The returning Jingle Hells mode brings a holiday-themed makeover to Liberty Falls, including decorations and Snowballs that can be thrown at the undead. It also removes Mystery Box, Crafting Tables, and Arsenal Machines to increase the challenge. This change may cause some confusion for new players, who may turn to CoD: Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies to complete some objectives more easily.
Treyarch has revamped Black Ops 6 Zombies Liberty Falls map and added a holiday theme to Jingle Hells limited-time mode. Compared to earlier games in the series, CoD BO6 has gone a step further and celebrated the holiday season in many ways.
Many games celebrate Holidays in their own way, and the latest Call of Duty is no exception. Fans of Call of Duty series have previously seen Holiday season celebrations in games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Vanguard, and Black Ops Cold War.
Typically during holiday season events, the developers will give out relevant CoD BO6 Redeem Codes, especially during special events such as Jingle Hells. Be sure to stay tuned to BO6 for the latest news to get new redeem codes. They can unlock skins, weapons, and other exciting rewards.
Modern Warfare Remastered also features a holiday-themed Crash map, while many fans will recognize the festive Shipment. These changes to classic locations bring some new twists to maps that old fans are already familiar with. As part of CODMAS 2024, multiple changes are coming to BO6, including Jingle Hells changes to Liberty Falls.
Call of Duty blog recently confirmed details of CODMAS 2024, which includes Jingle Hells limited-time mode for Zombies' Liberty Falls map. Like Holiday Nuketown map, Liberty Falls is decorated with garlands, streamers, snowmen, lights, Christmas trees, wreaths, and snow. Enemies in Call of Duty Zombies are also dressed up for the season, with zombies, Manglers, Parasites, and more wearing Holiday gear.
Floating big socks will give players energy-boosting gifts or spawn Vermin, zombies will periodically drop gifts, and Holiday Cheer Gobblegum is available at Gobblegum Machines. CODMAS 2024 runs until January 3, so players only have a little over two weeks to get in the holiday spirit.
You can still complete Liberty Falls main quest in Jingle Hells, but be aware that it will be much harder due to all the different mechanics. There doesn't appear to be any unique rewards for completing it in LTM, though. Note that if you complete the quest in Jingle Hells, you'll get the standard Main Quest completion reward.
There's a brand new kind of Gobblegum available during Jingle Hells event, called Holiday Cheer Gobblegum. This Whimsical gum won't give you any advantages against hordes of the undead, but it will give the zombies a festive swag.
Similar to the feature in Nuketown Holiday, you can collect piles of snowballs around Liberty Falls, which replace Lethal Equipment, allowing you to throw them at zombies for high damage.
You can find Naughty or Nice Power-Up around Liberty Falls, a giant floating sock that will give out gifts or spawn Vermin depending on how naughty or nice you are. Whether a Power-Up is a Naughty or Nice is random based on how you play the map.
The snowmen of Liberty Falls are admittedly jolly, but also sinister and unfriendly, dotting the map and potentially hiding zombies or loot if left undestroyed. It's wise to target these snowmen, especially since they drop a lot of loot when eliminated.
In some cases, zombies will drop a small present box, which, when opened, grants an ongoing present. It's unclear what this means, but be sure to keep an eye out.
Trial computers that appear around the map now have a more festive look, and once you enter the map, there are also some gift boxes that appear near S.A.M.T.A. computers, which are worth checking out.
The cold weather only makes things more difficult, as Jingle Hells introduces Frozen Rounds, a strange mist in the air that will make you feel freezing cold and your reaction speed will be greatly slowed during certain rounds. You can stay warm indoors to avoid the effects, though.
In addition to Jingle Hells, Black Ops 6 players have a lot of other ways to celebrate Holidays. GobbleGum Mania, Merry Mayhem, and Archie's Festival Frenzy have also joined the rotation, with the first two events running until December 19, and the latter from December 19 to January 3.
Players can grab two Holiday Packs from the store, with Season's Bleedings Pack including two Weapon Blueprints, a Calling Card, an Emblem, an Emote, a Spray, and Toro's Daddy Claus Operator Skin. Warzone players can also celebrate Holidays with Holiday RushRan-Snack, and Slay Ride Resurgence Modes, as well as decorations similar to Black Ops 6's Nuketown and Liberty Falls.
Many players are busy reuniting with family and friends during the holidays, and CODMAS 2024 ensures that they can continue to celebrate at their leisure. As Treyarch continues to update CoD BO6, this may not be the last holiday for the game.
The above is an introduction to all the gameplay of Jingle Hells limited-time mode in CoD Black Ops 6. Have you mastered the secrets? Looking forward to your exciting performance in the game!
