Black Ops Cold War “Leak” has players in a panic

by

A new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has a leak CODFISH players, or at least some players, panic. In official marketing materials for Season 1, Activision and Treyarch revealed that a controversial scorestreak is coming to the game soon. More specifically, an official screenshot of the game features a character using the flamethrower, which is neither in the game nor formally announced at the time of writing. It’s unclear if this is a tease or an artist and marketing forgetting that the flamethrower killstreak is not in the game and has not been announced, but it leaked many months ago, thanks to the game’s files and the data miners combing through it .

For now, neither Activision nor Treyarch have commented on the screenshot and its implications, and at this point are unlikely to do so. It’s also worth pointing out that somehow the screenshot doesn’t confirm whether this is a score streak or a weapon in play. That said, the aforementioned data mining leak suggested it was just a score streak.

While the screenshot more or less confirms that the flamethrower is coming to the game, it doesn’t reveal when it comes to the game. It will probably come sooner rather than later if it already appears in official screenshots, but for now this is just an assumption.

As mentioned, players are panicking about the prospect of the Flamethrower being added to the game due to its controversial past implementation.
