Spawn isn’t the only horror-themed crossover for Call of Duty’s upcoming Halloween event. Diablo 4’s warring bosses are heading to the game, too.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0’s The Haunting event, set to arrive as part of Season 6, adds Diablo-themed bundles that include the Queen of the Succubi Lilith and the fallen archangel Inarius as Operators.
Lilith is the antagonist of the recently released Diablo 4, which also sees Inarius play a key role in the story. Perhaps the only surprise here is that it’s taken this long for Call of Duty and Diablo to cross paths. Both games are owned by parent company Activision Blizzard, and Call of Duty left military realism behind years ago as battle royale Warzone became a playground for licensed crossovers.
Elsewhere, Masters of the Universe supervillain Skeletor, the Evil Dead’s Ash Williams, and Alucard from Hellsing are also on the way to Call of Duty as Operators. There’s even a Doom tracer weapon bundle, which includes Doomguy’s famous chainsaw and long-range shotgun. Check images out in the slideshow below:
Season 06 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone launches 9am PT on September 27 across platforms. The Haunting comes later, just before mid-season on October 17.
The Haunting marks the conclusion of Modern Warfare 2’s final season, which increases the Prestige Rank cap from 21 to 25, with a new maximum level of 1,250. The Modern Warfare 3 beta kicks off October 6 on PlayStation consoles, with crossplay across all platforms from October 12. Modern Warfare 3 campaign early access begins November 2, with the full launch set for November 10. The content you earn in Modern Warfare 2 will carry forward to the Modern Warfare 3, which means you can take your weapons and Operators with you to the new game.

FromSoftware released a new patch for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon on Thursday, and three very overdue targets were struck by the nerf laser. Say a fond farewell to your reliably overpowered SG-027 Zimmerman shotguns, Songbirds grenade cannons, and Stun Needle Launcher.
NES puzzler platformer A Boy and His Blob and its Game Boy sequel are getting digital re-releases later this month.
Diablo 4 pulled back the curtain on the vampiric scourge that will descend upon Sanctuary on October 17th in Season 2. Blizzard will also release Diablo 4 on Steam the same day.
Blizzard has unveiled all the much-needed changes coming to Diablo 4 on October 17 with the release of Season 2, dubbed Season of Blood, and patch 1.2.0 in a developer update livestream.
Diablo 4 caught my eye as soon as it dropped and ended up being my first-ever delve into Blizzard’s long-standing RPG series. While I’m glad I took the plunge and discovered the wickedly whimsical world offered by Sanctuary, I was always a bit disappointed with its exclusive appearance on Blizzard’s own storefront. I’m one of those Steam addicts, collecting games on Valve’s platform and proudly displaying my achievements in one cozy spot. Thankfully, I’ll finally get to do just that with Diablo now as the developer revealed its official Steam release.
Diablo 4 Season 2 could see some big changes in how world boss timers work.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone are getting a raft of licensed bundles over the course of Season 6, and now the update is out in the wild, players have dug up gameplay clips showing off how they look.

Last week, it was officially announced that Lilith and Inarius would be coming to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II Season 6 as playable Operators.
Blizzard has clarified language from a recent Diablo 4 blog that was misleading some players into thinking there would be no quality of life changes at the start of Season 2.
Just a couple of weeks ago General Manager of Diablo Rod Fergusson revealed that the team had two streams worth of new stuff for the upcoming Season 2, Season of Blood. Now, we know the exact dates of those two streams. Blizzard revealed today that the first stream will take place on October 4 at 11 a.m. PDT.
