Godzilla and King Kong are stomping into Call of Duty

Add as a preferred source on Google

After months of leaks, rumors, and obvious teases, Call of Duty finally put out an official announcement and teaser that Godzilla and King Kong are bringing their fight to Call of Duty Warzone and Vanguard. The collaboration is happening on May 11, but details on what it will exactly entail are still mysterious.

The in-game event is called “Operation Monarch,” a reference to the scientific organization dedicated to kaiju research in Legendary Pictures’ Monsterverse series of films. It seems the operations are going to be brought to the Call of Duty world along with the iconic movie duo. It’s yet another appearance for the busy monsters, who will star in an upcoming Godzilla series and Godzilla vs. Kong sequel.

 

While there is official confirmation that the kings are coming, we don’t know exactly what the monsters will bring to Vanguard and Warzone. From the last teaser of the crossover, it seems that the two may be making the world their stomping ground, and players will have to evade them and the destruction they bring during their battle against others. Perhaps Godzilla’s iconic atomic breath will make an appearance as an obstacle, making it imperative for players to make it to safe houses or bunkers as teased in a previous trailer. Or maybe it’ll just mean some monster-inspired cosmetics are coming to the game.

Speaking of unlikely crossovers, Call of Duty just collaborated with another cultural giant, Snoop Dogg, who can currently be played in both Vanguard and Warzone. Hopefully he’ll get to stand toe-to-toe with the King of the Monsters.

Players can witness the battle of the two kaiju juggernauts in Call of Duty on May 11.

MSI’s next gaming monitor can morph between three different resolutions and refresh rates
Why buy three monitors when MSI wants you to buy one expensive one?
MSI MPG OLED 322URDX

Gaming monitors have slowly become one of the most aggressively competitive categories in PC hardware. Over the past few years, brands have raced to push refresh rates higher, improve OLED technology, reduce response times, and deliver increasingly brighter displays. But despite all those upgrades, buyers still usually have to pick one side of the experience. You either buy a super-fast esports monitor with lower resolution or a high-resolution OLED display focused more on cinematic gaming.

At Computex 2026, MSI appears to be trying to eliminate that compromise. The company has officially unveiled the MSI MPG OLED 322URDX36, which it describes as the world’s first triple-mode QD-OLED gaming monitor.

Give yourself the edge in galactic conquest with these cheats and commands
Fleet in Stellaris

Running a galactic empire in Stellaris is an arduous task. One bad war, an economic spiral, or one neighbor with a suspiciously large fleet can turn a promising save into a slow-motion disaster. You may want to fix a mistake, or maybe even want to test a build. And sometimes, you just want to see what happens when your empire suddenly has more alloys than sense.

This is where Stellaris console commands come in. These cheats let you add resources, finish research, control empires, spawn ships, trigger events, or bend the galaxy in ways the normal game usually won’t allow.

Is Rust cross-platform?
Yes, but there's levels to this.
Rust player running by buildings.

Rust is the kind of survival game where choosing the right server matters almost as much as choosing the right weapon. This also reflects on the platform of your choice. If you're you're friends are spread across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, you’ll want to know exactly who can play together before anyone starts building a base.

The answer to the question is simple in one way and annoying in another. Rust supports crossplay between PlayStation and Xbox players, but PC players cannot play with console players. So yes, there is cross-platform support, but only inside the console version of the game.
