Call of Duty is capping off the first year of Warzone 2.0 with its best (and scariest) event yet.
As much as I enjoyed unloading magazines into Warzone’s rendition of King Kong that one time, Call of Duty’s limited-time events don’t usually pique my interest until October comes around. This year is no different—Warzone’s „The Haunting“ event kicked off this week and there’s a ton going on. New boss fights are littered across the map (including The Butcher from Diablo 4), enemies drop souls that unlock Halloween-themed goodies, and loot boxes will randomly trigger a jumpscare that makes you die a little on the inside.
At least, that’s what it did to me. I hopped into a DMZ match specifically to see how bad the jumpscares are and still managed to get got by a random box I opened to finish a contract. They’re not even sophisticated jumpscares either, just run-of-the-mill ghostly faces with super loud screams that early YouTubers used to edit into innocuous videos of cars driving through the countryside.
