Welcome to the weekly wrap-up for April 5, 2019, detailing the major announcements, blog posts of note, and other items of interest in the world of Activision games.

In another busy week, PlayStation® 4 Call of Duty®: Black Ops players can now drop in and take no prisoners on the island of Alcatraz; a new Blackout map. Plus, the Blackout Free Access period is now active, running throughout the month of April across all platforms. It’s also a great time to see Multiplayer map Contraband in an all-new light; perfect your tactics before the storm rolls in! And for those venturing into the Greek hellhole of Delphi to rescue the Oracle, there are some tactical plans for Ancient Evil to follow. In addition, Black Ops 4 fans can now access an expanded Combat Record on the Call of Duty® Companion App; multiplayer statistics can be inspected, and all at your fingertips!
