This is not a drill: Terry Crews has come to Call of Duty
A deadly Crews missile hits Black Ops 7
- Terry Crews has come to Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 as a playable character
- It's part of the big Season 3 Reloaded update
- Other major additions include a Robocop event with some free skins, plus new maps and weapons
Comedy actor Terry Crews, of iconic Old Spice advertisement fame, has arrived as a playable operator in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Call of Duty: Warzone as part of the games' new Season 3 Reloaded update.
Crews is portraying The Replacer, a suited figure from the game's live action ad campaign. In the ads, The Replacer would take over various jobs and family responsibilities on a behalf of a client so that they could spend their time instead playing more Black Ops.
He's available as part of the new premium Tracer Pack: Luxury Crews Ultra Skin Bundle which also includes a DS20 Mirage blueprint, RK-9 SMG blueprint, Echo 12 shotgun blueprint, and some other goodies like an emote, weapon charm, and loading screen.

More maps, more weapons
On the multiplayer front, the new map Onsen is being introduced. It's set in a small spa in a remote region of Japan, with claustrophobic buildings and hot springs that obscure your vision with rising steam.
It arrives alongside a remastered version of Summit, which first appeared in the original Black Ops. There's also Hacienda returning from Black Ops 6 — though rather than a full remaster it's just a basic re-release and hasn't been meaningfully changed this time around.
Players can also drop into the new mode Freerun, which takes place on the exclusive map Freerun: Ascent. It's a parkour mode with no combat at all, and has you leaping between ledges and dodging obstacles against a time limit.

You can read everything that has been added, including for the Zombies and Endgame modes in addition to Warzone, on the official Call of Duty Blog.
