The next chapter in the blockbuster Call of Duty franchise has been officially announced: Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is coming later this year, and it's bringing a star-studded cast and a mind-bending new narrative set in 2035. Revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase and confirmed by Activision , the game promises to redefine the series with both gameplay innovation and Hollywood flair.For the first time, Black Ops will feature major Hollywood actors in leading roles. Milo Ventimiglia (This Is Us, Heroes) steps in as David Mason, a fan-favorite protagonist first introduced in Black Ops 2. Kiernan Shipka (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) joins as Emma Kagan, the CEO of a mysterious organization called The Guild, while Michael Rooker reprises his role as Mike Harper, returning to the franchise after a long hiatus. According to Activision's marketing head Tyler Bahl, Mason will be subtly redesigned to resemble Ventimiglia, and Shipka's performance is expected to 'truly impress players'.Set over forty years after the events of Black Ops 6, the story plunges players into a world teetering on the edge of chaos, plagued by psychological warfare and violent global clashes.

One thing is clear: Black Ops 7 is set to be the most cinematic and ambitious entry in Call of Duty history.

Persona 4 Revival officially announced: Atlus delivers a modern makeover
Getty Images Persona 4 Revival officially announced After months of swirling rumors and cryptic hints, Atlus has finally confirmed what fans have been hoping for: Persona 4 Revival , a complete remake of the iconic 2008 RPG, is officially in development. The announcement came during the Xbox Games Showcase on June 8, 2025, sending shockwaves of excitement through the gaming community. Persona 4 Revival is set to launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, and will be available day one for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. While Atlus has not revealed a release date, the debut teaser trailer showcased a fresh 360-degree camera system, replacing the original's fixed perspective and promising a more immersive exploration of the rural town of Inaba. The remake is expected to follow in the footsteps of 2024's Persona 3 Reload , featuring upgraded visuals, enhanced sound, a revamped combat system, and expanded social simulation elements. Longtime fans are already speculating about quality-of-life improvements and new gameplay mechanics, though Atlus has remained tight-lipped about notable development is the absence of several original English voice actors, including Yuri Lowenthal (Yosuke), who recently shared on social media that they were not invited back for the remake. This has sparked discussion among fans eager to see how the new cast will reinterpret beloved characters. Originally released for the PlayStation 2 and later as Persona 4 Golden on the PS Vita, the game is celebrated for its blend of murder mystery, dungeon crawling, and high school social life. The remake aims to introduce a new generation to its gripping narrative and quirky cast, while giving veterans a reason to revisit Inaba with fresh eyes. Although details remain scarce, the hype is undeniable. As Atlus puts the finishing touches on Persona 4 Revival , fans are already counting down the days until they can dive back into the Midnight Channel.
