A list of unreleased operators leaked by Call of Duty leaker @TheGhostOfHope includes a number of footballers in Modern Warfare 2 that Insider Gaming has been able to verify as legitimate. If the leak comes to fruition, it could mean that Activision plans on a football-related event for Modern Warfare 2.




The list of operators includes footballers Messi, Neymar, Reyes, and more, which Insider Gaming sources were able to find via the in-game files of Modern Warfare 2.

You can see the full list here:

• Aksel
• Connor
• Klaus
• Luna
• Messi
• Neymar
• Pogba
• Roze
• Reyes
• Gromsco

In-game file names are typically the first “official” way to determine if a leak or rumor is legitimate because the files have been added to the game. Although such file names do not guarantee footballs will be coming to Modern Warfare 2, it could be a part of a FIFA World Cup event in 2023.

It’s understood that Activision has “big plans” for Warzone 2.0 and Modern Warfare 2 will huge collaboration events. Earlier this year, Godzilla and King Kong made their way to Warzone and it’s believed that Activision and its developers will continue this trend moving forward.

It seems like they don't know which audience to focus on.

MW19 was about serious semi military Sim.
MW2 is about modern cringe musicians and football stars.

Much better than decent servers, reliable anti-cheat software and fun maps to play

We really really need a proper competitor to cod soon, this franchise has become something else entirely.

Maybe Sony will make one now if the CoD deal goes through

I don't see Messi as the gamer type. Neymar and Agüero for sure would love to be there. Agüero has its own e sports team.
