Call of Duty Modern Warfare II has revealed tons of collaborations so far since its anticipated debut last year. In November, the makers surprised the fans by introducing playable Operators based on football stars like Lionel Messi and Neymar Jr. Following this streak in 2023, Activision ended up bringing other fictional characters as well into the action-filled title.
Not just that, this month itself is going to drop special Operator bundles based on two renowned streamers, Nickmercs and TimTheTatman. It’s the first time Call of Duty has collaborated with content creators to introduce playable characters inspired by them. However, the franchise is yet to make a crossover with other gaming IPs. And that’s exactly what a lot of fans are hoping for right now. Interestingly, though, some of them believe that there already exists a specific Operator skin in Modern Warfare II which is based on a famous video game!
