Topics of the week. Sources: Blizzard, Activision, CD Projekt Red, Riot Games, and Coffee Stain

Welcome to the latest weekly review on Gaming-Grounds.de! Today we look back together from April 19 to April 25, 2021. We are presenting you this format for the 17th time in this calendar year. On the one hand, this means, of course, that it is Sunday again, but on the other hand, April is almost behind us and it will start in the second third of the year in a few days.

But what topics have we been particularly interested in over the past week? Of course, that’s what it’s about right now. The past seven days have included the major revelations and the start of Season 3 of Call of Duty Warzone, blatant news of Jeff Kaplan’s departure for Blizzard after more than 19 years and news of the surprise hitting Valheim. There has also been a new leak of upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 and Riot’s new VALORANT first-person shooter map.
