Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players aren't happy with the highly-anticipated release of The Replacer bundle, which includes an operator skin for the beloved Call of Duty character of the same name. The Replacer, who is played by Swedish actor Peter Stormare, has regularly been used to promote new Black Ops games and has now been released as an operator in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, but players aren't happy with having to pay twice to get both versions of the skin.

Despite the fact that the latest Call of Duty game is set during the Gulf War, Black Ops 6 has already introduced some massively controversial skins. While the controversy surrounding The Replacer is largely to do with its monetary value, Call of Duty fans have already expressed their disappointment with other operators that were introduced with the game's Season 1 update, such as the Draconic Forge bundle, which included various cosmetic items like a neon green Dragon skin. The debate surrounding realistic skins is a never-ending one in the Call of Duty community, with some arguing that they take away from the realism, while others argue that the series isn't supposed to be a realistic military shooter.

Call of Duty Fans Unhappy With New Black Ops 6 Bundle

This time, fans aren't unhappy with the aesthetics of a skin, but they are frustrated with Black Ops 6's The Replacer bundle due to the fact that its variant is locked behind the game's Blackcell Battle Pass. Over on Reddit, a post by UnexpectedEmuAttack believes it is "insane" that players must purchase a $30 Blackcell Battle Pass just to use a variation of a $30 skin. For those who might be out of the loop, The Replacer bundle includes two operator skins, but one can only be acquired by purchasing Black Ops 6's Blackcell Battle Pass, which is an additional purchase on top of the bundle. Rather bizarrely, players must also purchase the Blackcell Battle Pass before the bundle, or they won't receive the variant. Purchasing the bundle and then Blackcell will result in the player receiving just the standard Replacer skin.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.

The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.

In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.

Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
