Dataminers did their factor following the discharge of the troubled Season 1 Reloaded replace for Trendy Warfare 3 and Warzone, and found paintings that reveals the collaboration between Name of Responsibility and Video games Workshop’s grimdark universe set within the far future is doubtlessly on the way in which.
It is price noting this crossover stays unannounced, so could not occur. Nevertheless it seems to be seemingly given the extent of the recordsdata discovered inside the sport.

That’s all we now have for now, which leaves us room for some enjoyable hypothesis. Maybe the collaboration will embody the discharge of Warhammer 40,000’s well-known boltgun into Name of Responsibility’s weapon pool? Maybe extra seemingly is a lasgun of Imperial Guard fame. Truthfully, I’m shocked House Marines and Sisters of Battle have been chosen as operators, since they’re such a nasty match for Name of Responsibility (House Marines are eight-foot tall and put on hulking energy armour!) I’d have thought troopers from the Imperial Guard, which is made up of principally human items, would have been a greater match. However in a world during which Name of Responsibility has an operator who’s mainly Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy, something goes I suppose.
Within the right here and now, Activision is working to revive order after Season 1 Reloaded just about broke Warzone. Over in Trendy Warfare 3, Ranked Play was delayed on the final minute, and there’s nonetheless no phrase on when it should arrive.
