Summary
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2andCall of Duty: Warzoneplayers can now purchase the 21 Savage Bundle, Activision has now confirmed. The latest Tracer Pack forCall of Dutyfeatures rapper 21 Savage as a playable Operator, as well as a variety of other themed cosmetic content. 21 Savage is just one of several recent meta Operators being introduced toCall of Duty. Snoop Dogg, Nicki Minaj, and Lara Croft are just a few other recent examples.
21 Savage, for those unfamiliar, is a hugely successful rapper. He’s known for hit songs including “Rockstar” and “A Lot,” and his collaborations with musicians including Cardi B., Post Malone, Drake, and J. Cole. While 21 Savage isn’t as well known for being a fan of video games as some other rappers, he’s previously talked about enjoyingGrand Theft Auto,Tom Clancy,Need for Speed, andUFCgames. He even has the Electronic Arts logo tattooed on his ribs. Though, he’s been quoted in the past as saying that while, “you was with your friends playing Nintendo, I was playing ‘round with that fire.”

Now 21 Savage has joined a small but quickly growing lineup ofpop culture figures playable inCall of Duty. The previously advertised 21 Savage Bundle is now available. It’s listed for 2400Call of Dutypoints, which will cost players around $20. It’s unclear if the 21 Savage Bundle will be available permanently, but there’s no indication of limited availability at this time.
The 21 Savage Bundle has a variety of content. The21 Savage Operator skinis obviously the focus of the bundle. It features 21 Savage shirtless with a backward cap, with what looks like most of his tattoos intact. The EA logo on his ribs has definitely been changed, though. Also in the bundle are two weapon skins, the “Savage Mode” Assault Rifle and “Red Opps” SMG, a “Slaughter King” knife skin, a “Skrrt Skrrt” UTV vehicle skin, as well as a charm, sticker, and loading screen.
An action-packed trailer for the 21 Savage Bundle showcases just what the rapper will look like in-game. It shows 21 Savage driving a jet ski through a tunnel, bullets flying around him, followed by him doing a motorcycle stunt over a helicopter. The trailer ends with 21 Savage’s bike crashing into a vehicle below the helicopter, leaving his fate dubious.
While someCall of Dutyplayers aren’t certain whether this move toward premium skins for pop culture figures is best for the game, Activision seems confident in the decision.Tomb Raider’s Lara Croft will be available inCall of Dutysoon, and there are already leaks indicating characters like Spawn, Skeletor, andEvil Dead’s Ash will soon have Operator skins. It seems to work well forFortnite.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2andCall of Duty: Warzoneare available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
