Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will arrive in Call of Duty

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 heroes have shelled-shocked the Activision shooter universe.

While details on the collaboration's content and launch date (only described as "soon") remain scarce, the CODWarfareForum has leaked some unconfirmed information. Speculation points towards operator skins for all four turtles—though the absence of April O'Neil, Master Splinter, and Shredder is a notable omission. New melee weapons are also rumored, including a skateboard, katana, nunchucks, and a staff. The Grind map, a skatepark, is expected to be the central location for the crossover events.

Despite the announcement, fan reaction has been muted. This isn't due to a lack of popularity for the TMNT franchise, but rather stems from the current state of Black Ops Cold War. The game is struggling with numerous bugs and rampant cheating, leading to a significant decline in its player base. The timing of this collaboration, amidst these ongoing issues, has left many questioning its impact and longevity.
