Call Of Duty: Zombies Director Leaves Activision

The Call of Duty franchise has lost one of its most veteran developers who helped create the fan-favorite Zombies mode. Jason Blundell, a 13-year veteran of Treyarch, said in a statement that he enjoyed working at the studio over the past decade-plus, and he was particularly happy and excited about his contributions to the Zombies mode.

"[The Zombies team is] comprised of some of the most creative and talented developers in the industry, many of whom you never see because they're behind the scenes shaping the direction of each experience," Blundell said.

Blundell also thanked the Zombies community directly, saying he appreciates their "passion, enthusiasm, and frankly, your craziness."

Trackmania Nations Is Being Remade As A Live Service Game

Trackmania is returning with a remake of Trackmania Nations, the free-to-play sequel from 2006. The new game, announced during the Trackmania Grand League Finals in Lyon, France, will include a season campaign and will operate as a live service game, rotating which tracks are available each day.

The Trackmania series is built around wild track designs, with plenty of loops, corkscrews, and jumps, as well as the ability for players to create and distribute their own tracks. The Trackmania Nations remake will include new blocks and surfaces to build with.

Ubisoft has published an interview with Florent Castelnerac, the managing director at developer Ubisoft Nadeo, where he delves into the project further.

The Invisible Man Opens Strong, Pushes Sonic Off No. 1 For The First Time

Saw and Insidious writer Leigh Whannell's newest horror movie, The Invisible Man, started strong with a $29 million USD opening weekend in North America. That makes it easily the No. 1 movie of the weekend in the US and Canada, pushing Sonic the Hedgehog down off its top spot for the first time since its debut.

Sonic made $16 million to finish second, while Harrison Ford's The Call of the Wild came in third with $13.2 million, according to box office roundup by Entertainment Weekly. The Invisible Man had a budget of around $7 million, so things are looking good for the movie's profitability.

The Invisible Man is a reboot of the H.G. Wells story that was first adapted into a movie in 1933. The new film stars Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss as a survivor of abuse who believes her dead boyfriend came back to life to haunt her as an ... invisible man.
