Activision has today announced a top Secret Tournament ahead of its most anticipated franchise launch of the year, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. Two teams will go head-to-head during a live experience that will see stars including Jordan Pickford, Matt Tuck and Adebayo Akinfenwa battle it out to see who will be crowned the ultimate gaming team.
The head-to-head battle will take place at a hidden location in London on Thursday, October 27, the day before launch. Taking place in an underground octagonal cage, this first of its kind gaming tournament will feature star-studded teams, fronted by rapper and TV chef Big Zuu and Host and YouTuber, Chunkz.
Ahead of the Secret Tournament, team captain Big Zuu said, “I've said this before man - I'm waiting for the perfect fight. I'll call him out again. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, Chunkz is going down. What you have to understand is I’m as elite as the One-Four-One, I've sized him up, I’ve seen my team – we’ve got this.”
Alongside the talent, COD streamers BennyCentral and MrDalekJD and variety creators Sunpi and Tianna Mercedes will join the teams
In a game where the ultimate weapon is team, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II arrives on all platforms on Friday, October 28, bringing new gameplay innovations, all-new weapon handling and advanced AI with immersive multiplayer combat, third person mode and narrative-driven Special Ops.
