Season 4 Reloaded of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 brought new content for both FPS titles, but the biggest addition in the mid-season update is the inclusion of a crossover event with the popular Prime Video series The Boys. The event sees not just a few cosmetic and costume additions but also new mechanics taken from the superhero series that will change how the Battle Royale title is played. This guide will provide a full explanation and breakdown of The Boys Crossover Event in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0.

The most apparent changes that the crossover with The Boys will be the aesthetic changes made to the Warzone maps. Players will notice across all of the playable maps that posters and billboards have been replaced for ads for the in-universe shows and movies starring the characters making cameos in the game. These include the likes of the American Hero series featuring Starlight as well as two different Dawn of the Seven posters, the Avengers or Justice League film equivalent in the universe, featuring Homelander and Black Noir.

Speaking of these three characters in these posters, all three of them will be part of buyable bundles in the CoD Shop. Each one comes with one of the characters as a playable Operator along with multiple weapon Blueprints as well as other cosmetics like Weapon Charms and Decals, Emblems, Loading Screens, and more. The Starlight Bundle includes the titular hero as the Operator, the “Des Moines Defender” Assault Rifle, the Pro-Tuned “World Saver” SMG, the “Blinding Light” Sidearm, and the “Necessary Evi”l Finishing Move. There are also a Weapon Charm, Loading Screen, Weapon Sticker, and Emblem.

The Homelander Bundle includes the Homelander Operator as well
