The Call of Duty universe is going through some interesting changes right now. With Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare II taking a futuristic approach in their presentation, Activision is moving the title away from its original look. The novel approach is most evident when we look at the new operators.
In the past, Activision tried to include streamer operators like Nickmercs and TimTheTatman in the game. However, it did not go as they planned and they had to drop the operators. Now it looks like Activision is ready to gamble on some interesting operators from the music industry.
