It’s like a whole different universe.
Call of Duty-focused Twitter account ModernWarzone has shared a datamined clip of a gun that is also a bong you can smoke coming soon to Black Ops 6. That alone has me pondering the state of things, but the skin also seems to have sparked a heated debate in the comments: Why is it OK to have a bong gun in Call of Duty if it’s against the terms of service to verbally abuse teammates? Only on X, “The Everything App.”
Before anything else, I’m gonna go ahead and tap the sign PC Gamer staff writer Morgan Park hung up last year: Every time a new shooter launches, you gotta start a countdown until it becomes a clown show of brands and hideous skins. Black Ops 6 appears to be speedrunning this process while also reaching for new heights of absurdity, including eye-searing skins that have some players begging to be able to turn them off.
The bong gun is truly an appalling, over the top masterwork. Were it a meal, it would give you gout instantly and you’d want to hide your face from god like you were eating ortolan.
