In Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, new gloves have been introduced that cost 80 €. Fans are disappointed not only because of the price.
What kind of gloves are these? The gloves from Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 are a reward for purchasing 4 Kong x Godzilla bundles in the shop.
Each bundle costs about 2,400 Call of Duty Points, which is approximately 20 €. Those who purchase all 4 bundles will receive the BEAST gloves as a thank you, a skin for the “Gladiator,” a melee weapon, in the game.
However, the gloves cannot be purchased individually. So, anyone who wants the gloves and is not interested in the other bundles must still pay 80 €, which is 10 € more than the current price of the game on Steam.

Fans are disappointed not only by the price
How are fans reacting to the gloves? The gloves disappoint fans on multiple levels. The gloves are not only expensive, but they also lack any special animation or effect. With gloves from the Kong and Godzilla universe, many would have expected them to at least affect the player Ragdolls in some way.
On Reddit, one user made the sacrifice of purchasing all bundles to obtain the gloves, and he draws a sober conclusion:
Holy crap, it wasn’t worth it. The only positive aspects are that it counts as a Mastercraft blueprint (unique inspection) and it’s fun to hit enemies with it. But it doesn’t do anything special. I thought it would at least knock enemies down or even launch their bodies. And you can’t even apply skins over it. If you were interested in the melee blueprint, save your money, it’s not worth 80 dollars.

Even in the replies to the user’s post, other players agree. ShadowCoyote responds on Reddit: “Over 100 Canadian dollars. For a melee weapon. Totally crazy. Thank you for your effort, OP, and I’m sorry.”
IAMAK47 writes on Reddit: “I was hoping for an uppercut or a right hook with a different death animation.”
