China bans the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War teaser trailer for showing footage from the Tiananmen Square protests.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War recently received a teaser trailer to set the tone for a full-blown reveal in the coming days. The footage used was not from the game but rather a collage of real-world events that took place during the Cold War era, one of which was not appreciated by China. The teaser trailer of Black Ops Cold War showed protestors and troopers clashing against each other in the Tiananmen Square in Beijing. The events led on to the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989 where the Chinese military fired live rounds on the protestors for a death toll in the several thousands.
