On May 10, the official Call of Duty YouTube channel posted a short video announcing a new package that would be available in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone 2.

According to the forty-seven-second teaser, Kevin Durant, an NBA player currently playing for the Phoenix Suns, is available as an operator starting May 12 for a limited time.

In the short trailer, players can see the new operator riding in vehicles, shooting at enemies and even throwing a grenade into a basketball hoop.

Players can also see two new weapon blueprints for the new FJX Imperium sniper rifle and the Kastov-74U with colors to match the new operator skin.

Many Call of Duty players were waiting for this announcement, as a few days ago, the official Call of Duty Twitter profile made a cryptic tweet teasing a new collaboration.

Following the vague tweet, many Call of Duty fans started guessing which new character would be joining Price, Shredder and Alejandro in Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2, and some Twitter users correctly guessed that it was Kevin Durant.

By the way, good old Kevin Durant was eliminated from the NBA Playoffs tonight when he lost to Nikola Jokić’s Denver Nuggets. Now it remains to be seen whether Lebron or Curry goes through on that side of the bracket.
