The destructive pair will apparently duke it out on Caldera next month.
Say what you will about Call of Duty’s strange choices for crossover events over the last year, but somebody has to appeal to 45-year-old action movie dads. It looks like Warzone is kicking things up a notch this time: the real Nakatomi Plaza from Die Hard was cute, Rambo and Judge Dredd skins were neat, but what about mother-hecking Godzilla and their best friend King Kong?
That’s right, the stars of last year’s Godzilla vs. Kong will make an appearance on Caldera during next month’s Operation Monarch Warzone event. Activision announced the event on Twitter yesterday with a flashy trailer. «The battle begins May 11,» the announcement reads.
Hold on to your… everything. The MONSTER OF ALL BATTLES is coming 😱 #OperationMonarch is live on May 11. pic.twitter.com/W217v7J8DqApril 21, 2022
The battle itself remains a mystery, but if Monarch is anything like past Call of Duty events, there will likely be a time-limited mode in which Godzilla and Kong appear and fight each other while everyone stands around watching. Monarch is just one part of Warzone Vanguard Season 3: Classified Arms. Also in the pipeline for Warzone are a few new points of interest, a new perk, another gulag map, and the return of Iron Trials.
And that’s pretty much it for Warzone’s roadmap this season. It seems like Warzone updates have gotten scarcer as the months rage on, and there’s likely good reason for it. Activision announced earlier this year that Infinity Ward is hard at work on a sequel to Warzone built from the ground up on the engine that will power the next Call of Duty.
