A 'Call of Duty' board game is coming in 2024

Activision has partnered with board game publisher Arcane Wonders, Genuine Entertainment, and Evolution to make a board game version of Call of Duty. The board game is said to feature a fast-paced blend of combat, strategy, and tactical planning. The trailer doesn't give us a clue about the gameplay. But we know that you and your fellow players will take on the guise of soldiers. You'll battle opponents with combat skills and different weapons. There will be various scenarios and gameplay modes, and the action will happen in different maps from the Call of Duty games.

More details will be revealed in the coming months. And the pre-orders for Call of Duty: The Board Game will start this fall.

New ‘Monopoly’ game does away with the money

You can no longer corrupt the Banker of your Monopoly game, if you play the new version, that is. Called Ultimate Banking, the new version of the game makes use of debit cards instead of the Monopoly money we all know and love. What this version includes is an electronic card that can read debit cards and the property cards. So, when you decide to buy a property, you just have to scan the property card and then your debit card. The needed funds will be deducted from your card.  Hasbro will be releasing the game in the U.S. this summer for US$25.
