WWE and Call of Duty Announce Exciting Collaboration for Season Five

WWE Joining Forces with CoD in Style

The worlds of professional wrestling and video gaming are about to collide spectacularly. A new collaboration between World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and Call of Duty (CoD) is scheduled to unfold in the forthcoming season five of both Warzone and Modern Warfare 3. Activision, CoD's developer, dropped hints about the upcoming collaboration in a social media post that included a tantalizing teaser for the highly-anticipated season. The newest CoD season is set to officially commence on July 24.

Possible Characters Making a Virtual Debut

The sneak-peek revealed shadows of three individuals approaching a wrestling ring. As the identities of these characters remain concealed, there is room for fan speculation. The leftmost shadow reflects a possible bald character evocative of renowned WWE wrestlers like Stone Cold Steve Austin or even contemporary star Cody Rhodes. The character in the middle allegedly sports a mohawk, hinting at the possibility of it being Rey Mysterio Jr. The character on the right has left even more room for interpretation, appearing to have long hair - a feature associated with numerous male and female wrestling superstars. Notable figures range from legends like Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and the Undertaker, to modern-day favorites like Roman Reigns or even Rhea Ripley. A fourth unseen wrestler is rumored, which, if legitimate, virtually assures John Cena's participation. Fans will get a complete clue about the upcoming game's character lineup when more details are released next week.

Exploring the Strategic Collaborative Move

The ensemble of WWE and CoD is a strategic move for both parties. WWE's SummerSlam Premium Live Event is set to release shortly after the launch of CoD's season five. This simultaneous timing opens up opportunities for mutual promotion, including the enticing option of WWE skin bundles in the game's store. The teaser footage also captured attention with the introduction of a wrestling ring that players can locate in Urzikstan. This area could be redesigned into a fresh point of interest on Warzone's Urzikstan, Rebirth Island, or Vondel maps, in cohesion with the theme of the collaboration. Fans can look forward to exciting new developments when season five launches for Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 on July 24.
