This week in games: Call of Duty starts selling sans-Zombies, DayZ preps Early Access exit

You'd think Epic's new storefront and The Game Awards would've swept up all the week's news, but no! Turns out plenty happened in and among this week's bombshell announcements: Below surprise-announced a release date in the near future, DayZ preps to emerge from Early Access at long last, Call of Duty starts selling Black Ops 4 sans-zombies, and Just Cause 4 adds a Getting Over It Easter egg. This is gaming news for December 3 to 7. It's not the same type of free game trial we like to highlight in this column, but if you're looking to play something this weekend Square Enix is now offering an extended demo of the recently released Shadow of the Tomb Raider. You can grab it from the Steam page and play the opening bit for free, which I assume includes the "Day of the Dead" and maybe the first tomb, a.k.a. the bit I played at the reveal event in April. I wasn't in love with Shadow of the Tomb Raider, but if you've been on the fence this is a good chance to get a taste of the game. Prey is one of 2017's best games--and one of 2018's as well, thanks to its ingenious Mooncrash update earlier this year.
