TVLine Items: The Boys Characters Join Call of Duty, Rap Sh!t Trailer and More
The Boys supes are suiting up for Call of Duty.
The Prime Video drama’s Homelander, Starlight, Black Noir and an unnamed hero will be playable characters in the video game Call of Duty Season 04 Reloaded, beginning this Wednesday, July 12 at 9 am PT.
Activision, the makers of Call of Duty, describe the crossover like this on the Call of Duty blog: “Task Force 141 members are in captivity. Vondel is a complete Warzone. [[REDACTED]] is moving quick on their master plan to shake the foundation of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II . . . and The Boys are here too: They may be ‘experts at exterminating Supes,’ but can they hunt down Operators now? Well, if they insist . . .”
The announcement was accompanied by a cheeky Black Noir press conference shared on Vought International’s Twitter account. Watch the video, then scroll down for a sneak peek at The Boys characters on Call of Duty.
