A game promotion involving animatronic zombie heads mounted on a street corner pranks Londoners.
Call of Duty: Vanguard releases November 5, bringing the next instalment in the franchise’s iconic Zombies multiplayer mode. Though the release is a bit late for Halloween, that hasn’t stopped Activision from having some fun with the promotions.
Activision decorated a street corner in London with a row of zombie heads to commemorate the game’s release. These animatronic heads spring to terrifying life at the perfect time to startle any curious pedestrians who dared to get close.
A video was posted to the Call of Duty YouTube account, showing the prank in detail. It gives us a good look at the 5 unique (and rather horrifyingly detailed) heads. One of the 5 spits variously coloured fluids at onlookers. Activision naturally set up a camera to capture the reactions of people who stumble into its prank.
The video shows several people falling victim to the prank. Some were trying to take selfies with the head, only to startle when the heads suddenly came to life. One man got sprayed in the face with saliva when trying to take a close up photo, and another got fake blood spattered on his white shirt. However, I sympathise most with the guy walking past with food when the spitting zombie decided to try and ruin his meal.
Call of Duty: Vanguard returns the series to World War 2 after three games exploring other settings. The primary campaign of vanguard will follow four different characters, including an American fighter pilot, a British-Cameroon paratrooper, a Soviet sniper, and an Australian infantryman. Together, they form a joint special-operations unit called Task Force One.
Meanwhile, the Zombies mode resumes the ongoing story from Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 that continued through Black Ops 4 and Cold War. Vanguard’s Zombies mode picks up where the story in Cold War’s Zombie mode left off. The activation of several supernatural artefacts has allowed powerful extradimensional entities to enter the world. Kortifex the Deathless makes a bargain with SS Oberfuhrer Wolfram Von List, granting him the power to raise the dead.
The aim of zombies is to take Kortifex down.
