Call of Duty ‘hijacked’ Jeremy Clarkson’s tweet

Jeremy Clarkson is not an unknown name to anybody. He is a famous broadcaster, journalist, and game show host, famously known for shows like ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?’ and ‘Top Gear.’ Recently, the English personality shared a picture from his holiday on a boat and tweeted, “Don’t worry if your A level results are disappointing. I got a C and 2 Us, and I’m currently holidaying on this boat.”

This tweet by the famous English broadcaster caught the attention of Call of Duty’s Twitter admin, who used this opportunity to promote an old map. In Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, there was a 6v6 multiplayer map called ‘Hijacked,’ which takes place on a superyacht. This map was added to the game in 2021 as part of Season Four.
