As Season 6 and The Haunting was being revealed back in late September, aDune-themed operator pack was leaked leading to speculation among the community about an imminent crossover with the sci-fi film franchise. Now, as Season 6 winds down,Modern Warfare 2has officially confirmed theDuneSardaukar operator bundle on Twitter, stating that it’s coming on November 1. The Sardaukar are an antagonistic faction offearsome warriors within theDuneuniverse.
While the contents of theDunebundle are still unknown, it’s a safe bet that the headlining items will be the character skin and two weapon blueprints. One of these weapon blueprints is visible in the post, which appears to be usingModern Warfare 2’s Ordnance weapon platformand is equipped with a drum magazine. SinceDuneisn’t particularly known as a horror franchise like the other Season 6 collabs, it’s more than likely that this operator pack was lined up to release alongsideDune: Part Two,which was originally stamped with an October 20 release date. AfterDune: Part Two’s recent delay to March 2024, it seemsCall of Dutyisn’t keen on holding onto the bundle for an extra five months as aModern Warfare 3drop.
Will the Dune Sardaukar Bundle Transfer Over to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3?
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3is just around the corner and as with any other weapon blueprint, operator, and cosmetic, theDuneSardaukar bundle willtransfer over fromModern Warfare 2into the new gameon November 10. It’s likely that thisDunebundle will be the lastCall of Dutycollaboration for a while, as crossovers for new games usually don’t begin until around Spring of the next year. Until then, fans eagerly awaitingDune: Part Twoto hit theaters in March will get to enjoy itsCall of Dutybundle five months early.
