Beavis and Butt-Head Crossover Teases Rebirth Island in Warzone
On June 23, Activision officially announced that Beavis and Butt-Head will be joining Call of Duty as operator skins in Black Ops 6 and Warzone. These characters keep their iconic cartoon style but wear military gear, blending the funny with the tactical.
This is a surprising but fun crossover that many fans didn’t expect. However, some players, like content creator JGOD, noticed that the background of the Beavis and Butt-Head promotional image shows a cel-shaded version of Rebirth Island, one of Warzone’s most famous maps.
Cel-shading is a style that makes things look like cartoons, matching the Beavis and Butt-Head skins. While Activision hasn’t said if this new map style will actually come to the game, it would fit perfectly with the collaboration’s theme.
Community Has Mixed Feelings About Cel-Shaded Skins
Cel-shaded skins aren’t brand new to Call of Duty; the Alvarez operator had an anime-style skin in Black Ops 6 that got mixed reviews. Some fans enjoy the fun and unique look, but many want the game to stick to more realistic military skins, especially since Black Ops 6 is set in the 90s.
The debate continues as rumours suggest Activision may tone down cartoonish skins in the future, but for now, the Beavis and Butt-Head collaboration and possible cel-shaded Rebirth Island bring some fresh, playful energy to the game.
However, whether cel-shaded maps or skins will appear in the next instalment remains to be seen.
