Call of Duty series publisher Activision has officially announced that it is celebrating 50 years of hip-hop by adding Nicki Minaj, Snoop Dog and 21 Savage to the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Warzone. The difference between characters in Modern Warfare II and Warzone is only visual and the gamers might not see Minaj finishing enemies with different weapons.

However, the appearance of 21 Savage is still unknown and is likely to be revealed before the start of Season 5 of Modern Warfare II and Warzone in August. This is not the first time that Call of Duty has received avatars of real individuals or even rappers. Snoop Dog is already playable in Call of Duty: Mobile, Call of Duty: Vanguard, and the previous generation Warzone.
