'COD: Vanguard' Is Getting An 'Attack On Titan' Crossover, Because Screw Realism I Guess

Call of Duty: Vanguard is out now, and in players’ hands, and those players are, presumably, having an alright time with it? Right? It’s an okay shootybang? Again? IDK, it’s not a game series I follow. One CoD is the same as all the other CoDs to me - though I guess there are clear winners and losers. And I don’t follow anime either, so this newly leaked crossover is absolutely wasted on me. But you? Y’know, maybe, just maybe, it’s your thing.

As reported on VGC and Gameort, datamining has revealed that Vanguard may soon officially reveal an Attack on Titan crossover - Attack on Titan being a popular anime series, based on a popular manga series created by Hajime Isayama, where gigantic humanoid monsters, titans, threaten to wipe out the last remaining humans, who are forced to live in special cities protected by high walls. 

A new operator (playable character) named aot_titan has been found, so too information pointing towards new weapons based on Attack on Titan. This comes via dataminers Nanikos and Zesty, who each discovered clues to the crossover. After posting their discoveries - see the embedded tweet below - Nanikos followed up by posting a picture of the new Attack on Titan-themed swords, writing: “Seems the Attack on Titan crossover is confirmed.”
