Just in time for Christmas, Activision is selling a cheaper version of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 on PC that comes without Zombies mode.

The Battle Edition, as it's known, launches exclusively on Battle.net priced £26.99. It includes competitive multiplayer and Blackout only.

The publisher has made the competitive multiplayer mode of previous Call of Duty games available standalone on Steam before, but these have usually been limited to timed promotions.
