how to use colon and hyphen in title correct way?

[IDK]

i know its command and conquer: red alret 3 - uprising

or call of duty: black ops 3 - zombie chronicles

but what's next?

like call of duty: black ops 3 - zombie chronicles - die mashine - solo - 25 round

just use hyphen over and over again?

Anyway you want. This sort of thing is governed more by editorial guidelines than agreed upon grammar/spelling rules.

That's as arbitrary as things get.

There *is* no correctly, other than what you call a hyphen is actually a dash. The hyphen is shorter and connects two words together.

There are plenty of (editorial) guidelines, most of them conflicting with each other at (minor) points. Here's one:

But basically whatever you do, only a pedantic will call you out on it and he'll be right by the set of rules he ascribe to, and wrong by others.

Also, for someone hung up on proper language rules, the lack of capitalization, punctuation and attention to spelling in your posts is rather ironic.

I often go with the dash as the colon can't be used in file names.
