Activision has announced a new crossover event for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Call of Duty: Warzone, bringing back the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This isn't the first time these shelled heroes have graced an Activision shooter.
While details on the collaboration's content and launch date (described only as "soon") remain scarce, the CODWarfareForum website has offered some unconfirmed speculation. This suggests the crossover will include operator skins for all four turtles—though notably, April O'Neil, Master Splinter, and Shredder are absent from the mentioned characters. New melee weapons are also rumored, including a skateboard, katana, nunchucks, and a staff. The Grind map, a skatepark, is speculated to be the central location for crossover events.
However, fan reaction has been muted, not due to a lack of enthusiasm for the TMNT franchise, but rather due to the current state of Black Ops Cold War. The game's struggles with bugs and cheaters have significantly impacted its player base, leaving many feeling the crossover is poorly timed and potentially overshadowed by the game's ongoing issues. The long-term success of this collaboration remains uncertain.
