Call of Duty: Warzone has released its new Battle Pass for Season 6. If you buy the bundle, you will also get three grim bear skins. However, not all fans are pleased with it. Some players feel reminded of teddy bears and a notorious skin from Fortnite.
What kind of skins are these? In the new Battle Pass for Season 6 of CoD Warzone, you can get not only cool skins for various operators but also three sinister pandas.
These skins are intended for the bulky operator Bulldozer and show him in three different panda costumes.
However, these are not cute bamboo exterminators that prefer to roll down slopes. The panda bear skins are quite sinister fellows that look like they are a wild gang wreaking havoc in the streets and brutally bashing people.
They come as the classic black-and-white panda, as a no less creepy red panda, and a quirky blue version.
Sinister ruffian pandas or way too cute Fortnite kitsch?
What are the reactions to the skins? The grim bear gang received mixed responses from the community. The “pro-bear” faction praises that the bear skins look grim, brutal, and tough. They also remind them of the shocker movie “The Purge”, where people let loose brutally once a year wearing bizarre animal masks.
Others, however, criticize on Twitter that the bears remind them too much of Fortnite. Some users wrote:
- Thomas via Twitter: “What crap, the pandas look like they are from Fortnite, OMG!”
- Casino via Twitter: “These will be the new troll skins!”
- Art via Twitter: “Teddy bear skins! What a joke, so Fortnite-ish. Vanguard is probably coming with dance moves?”
What skin is this in Fortnite? Players who see the skins as more problematic apparently feel reminded of a particularly prominent skin from the colorful battle royale Fortnite.
There has been a skin called “Cuddle Team Leader” for a long time.
This is a ragged, stupid-looking pink teddy bear. Over time, there have been various versions of the skin, including a patriotic version for Independence Day and a creepy Halloween version.
I don’t care, I want the bears! Where can I get them? If the possible association with Fortnite doesn’t bother you, you can get the bear trio by purchasing the Season 6 Battle Pass in a bundle for about 20 euros (2,400 CoD Points). You will then receive the three brutal bears as a bonus. There is currently no other way to acquire the skins; they are not included in the regular Battle Pass.
So much for the “problem bears” in CoD Warzone. What do you think of the “bear brothers”? Cool and grim or unbearable Fortnite kitsch that has no place in a serious game like Warzone? Let us know in the comments! Fun fact: Did you know there was once an anime cat girl bundle for operator Mara?
