Warzone Reveals Operation: Monarch, Featuring King Kong & Godzilla
Editor’s Note: A lawsuit has been filed against Activision Blizzard by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, which alleges the company has engaged in abuse, discrimination, and retaliation against its female employees. Activision Blizzard has denied the allegations. The full details of the Activision Blizzard lawsuit (content warning: rape, suicide, abuse, harassment) are being updated as new information becomes available.
The rumors and leaks were accurate — Call of Duty: Warzone will crossover with Godzilla vs. Kong in a May 2022 content update titled Operation: Monarch. Cursory details about Warzone's Godzilla vs. Kong crossover first hit the airwaves in late March when industry insider Tom Henderson and other sources claimed to have seen artwork of the two monsters duking it out with soldiers in the popular battle royale. Earlier this week, Activision all but confirmed the rumors by sharing a pair of marketing images that hinted at Godzilla's and King Kong's impending arrival.
This won't mark the first time that movie icons have dropped into the world of Call of Duty: Warzone. Approximately one year ago, Rambo and Die Hard protagonist John McClane joined the battle royale as playable Operators in an 80s-themed content update. Warzone's 80s Action Heroes event notably featured Die Hard's Nakatomi Plaza locale, several Rambo-inspired survival camps, and Legendary Weapon Blueprints for weapons ripped right out of each film franchise. It seems the COD: Warzone development team aimed to take things up a notch with this year's movie crossover, though.
