Activision is soon entering into the board game industry with a Call Of Duty exclusive, but fans are majorly disappointed. The past few weeks have been eventful for the Call Of Duty community as two AAA titles moved into season 3. Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 both received fresh seasons along with new maps, cosmetics, new updates, and more. Sadly, this did not fare well among the community as they trolled the franchise for releasing ‘pay-to-win’ stuff.
The fans were also disappointed with the cosmetics as they believed them to be rip-offs from the previous COD games. With the hope of adding some positivity among them, Activision announced a massive update on Twitter. Reportedly, they confirmed to enter the board game industry in the coming year. But once again, just as in the recent updates, fans trolled them hard.

On April 24, 2023, the Call Of Duty world remained in shock after the franchise announced its entry into the board game industry. Interestingly, they partnered with Arcane Wonders, the franchise behind some of the biggest board games. As of now, this COD box is set to release in 2024 without an official release date. However, rumors have confirmed a ‘Kickstarter’ campaign to follow by the end of this year.
Quite interesting, right? Well, that’s not something that the COD community believes as they have trolled the franchise hard. First things first, the trailer received backlash as the graphics seemingly reminded the fans of a Marvel movie intro. Overall, fans looked disappointed as they shared their sorrows on Twitter.
