FaZe clan member Swagg received a number of items from CoD devs at Activision. Certain Warzone streamers received similar merchandise bundles in recent days. Since fans got to know about it, they’ve quickly started to make their own conclusions as to what the devs were trying to highlight with the items. The content seems to be the same for everyone who received such boxes.

Swagg received a pair of slides, a can, and a cell phone in his box from the devs. Many fans didn’t lose any time and have already drawn their own conclusions. A slide, a can, and a cell (Slide + can + cell): fans naturally think a former feature of CoD titles is set to return with Modern Warfare III. Gamers are elated as this canceled feature has been much-requested by players since it was removed from the franchise. Being able to cancel slides mid-way is something that players can make use of to take out their opponents in the dynamic fast-paced setting of MW.
