Ah yes, April Fool's, the one day out of the year when you can't trust a single news item, especially with video games. Thankfully, instead of announcing something like Call of Duty: Dark Ages Warfare (with burning at the stake field order reward), Call of Duty: Ghosts developer Infinity Ward is inclined to get in on the spirit of the holiday. So when gamers go to load up the online multiplayer mode for a bit of fun, they'll be treated to a new list of game types.
Under the new playlist, gamers will find the "standard" list of games replaced with the following names 'til tomorrow:
- PEW PEW (Team Deathmatch)
- All The Guns (Gun Game)
- PCP (Cranked)
- Transfer (Blitz)
- Set Up Us The Bomb (Search and Rescue)
- YOLO (Search and Destroy)
- Sickness (Infected)
- Tags Or It Didn't Happen (Kill Confirmed)
- Bro, Do u even cap? (Domination)
- New Shit (Drop Zone)
- Wolfpack of 1 (Free for All)
- Tic Tac Fo' (Team Tactical)
- Booms of Plenty (Ground War)
In other news, remember that the game's next DLC, Devastation, is scheduled to hit Xbox platforms later this week, April 3.
As you might expect, the game adds four new maps, each with a special field order reward:
* Ruins - this map takes place on what's left on an ancient South American temple, with two special dangers in the form of an erupting volcano, and a cinematic space hunter
* Behemoth - taking place on a giant mechanical Earth-excavator, players will be able to bring in a mini-gun equipped chopper to blast away at enemies.
* Collision - A sniper haven, spary n' pray players will be overjoyed to control an A-10 fighter jet.
* Unearthed - a remake of Modern Warfare 3's "Dome" map, Unearthed has been redesigned as an archeological dig-site. Players can discover the Venom-X weapon and summon in aliens from Ghosts' Extinction mode weapon.
