That’s all we’ve got for now, which leaves us room for some enjoyable hypothesis. Maybe the collaboration will embody the discharge of Warhammer 40,000’s well-known boltgun into Call of Duty’s weapon pool? Maybe extra possible is a lasgun of Imperial Guard fame. Truthfully, I’m stunned Area Marines and Sisters of Battle have been chosen as operators, since they’re such a foul match for Call of Duty (Area Marines are eight-foot tall and put on hulking energy armour!) I’d have thought troopers from the Imperial Guard, which is made up of largely human models, would have been a greater match. However in a world during which Call of Duty has an operator who’s principally Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy, something goes I suppose.

Within the right here and now, Activision is working to revive order after Season 1 Reloaded just about broke Warzone. Over in Fashionable Warfare 3, Ranked Play was delayed on the final minute, and there’s nonetheless no phrase on when it can arrive.
