Warhammer 40K Enters the Battlefield in Call of Duty Collaboration
Warhammer 40K joins forces with Call of Duty in an exciting collaboration set to launch following leaked details that provide a sneak peek into the upcoming crossover event.
Activision has officially announced that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone will be getting Warhammer 40K-themed skins in the near future. This confirmation follows months of rumors and leaks regarding this exciting collaboration.
Back in January, Call of Duty dataminers uncovered various Warhammer 40K-themed content hidden in the game's files, including new medals and loading screens. Many fans speculated that this discovery pointed towards a potential crossover event featuring Warhammer 40K in Call of Duty, with some even suggesting that the unique medals could hint at a new game mode. However, all of this remained mere speculation until now.
Call of Duty's Twitter account announced a Warhammer 40K crossover, featuring Space Marines, Sisters of Battle, Astra Militarum, and more as skins. A short video in the tweet shows a fallen Space Marine on Warzone's Fortune's Keep map. No launch date is given yet, but more details are expected in the coming weeks. Dataminers have already provided a sneak peek into what the event will include.
