After looking deeper, the user found out that it was, in fact, a Harry Potter easter egg. Now that sounds extremely bizarre in the first place. But it’s something that’s been there in the game for the past few months!

Well, this tattoo is nothing but a Harry Potter easter egg, according to the Reddit user. They mentioned that Operator Nova has got a tattoo from the movie Harry Potter Deathly Hallows on her left arm. However, this situation is more than what meets the eye. In case some Call of Duty fans are not aware, Denver-based model Abena is the one who has possibly served as the inspiration for Nova. The latter is one of the newest Operators featured in Modern Warfare II.

Interestingly, Abena has got a Harry Potter tattoo as well. So it might be the case that the devs who worked on Nova may have forgotten to delete the tattoo while scanning Abena, who was the model for this female Operator. But it’s just a theory as of now since there’s no clear information available on this situation.

All things considered, however, Harry Potter lovers were quite happy to spot such an easter egg in a Call of Duty game. Most of them were shocked to witness this, months after Modern Warfare II’s debut. “Good eye, would have never spotted that,” wrote one Reddit user. Have a look at some of the other reactions below:
