Call of Duty's latest addition to the series, Modern Warfare 2, is set to release on October 28. With the game's Early Access Campaign mode currently available, there has been plenty of promotional content released that highlights what players can expect from the latest franchise entry.
Call of Duty's official YouTube channel posted one such promotional video on 16 September, featuring a closer look at the Oni Operator.
The trailer showcases Modern Warfare 2's brand new Oni Operator, Hiro Watanabe. Here's all that's currently known about the unique Operator and how fans can get their hands on this new playable character for the game's multiplayer mode.
The Operator's skin seems to feature elements from a calm and composed samurai, similar to the likes of Jin Sakai from Ghost of Tsuchima. Besides wielding the Dual Kodachis: Aomi, a Legendary melee weapon that appears in Season Five of Warzone, he uses a solid M4 Carbine build.
To add onto this, a weapon blueprint as well as this Operator skin will be compatible with the upcoming Warzone 2.0, which is scheduled to be released on 16 November. This is unlike the previous time wherein players could only use skins from the Ghost Legacy Pack only in Warzone 1 upon pre-ordering Modern Warfare 2.
This means that the Oni operator will be compatible with the game's multiplayer mode as well as Warzone 2.0. Unfortunately, to the dismay of some fans, this Operator pack is exclusive and will not be available to all players immediately. At the eight-second mark of the trailer, it was noted that the Operator and other bonus content for it will only be available to those who have digitally pre-ordered the game on PlayStation consoles.
