As a long-time Call of Duty enthusiast and a connoisseur of Peter Stormare’s iconic roles, I can’t help but feel an electric surge of excitement at the prospect of The Replacer joining our ranks! This enigmatic figure, who has infiltrated everything from TV studios to the Vatican, is now stepping into the virtual world of Black Ops 6 – and frankly, I can’t wait to replace some foes of my own with his imposing presence.


In the promotion for Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the main attraction – the character played by Peter Stormare known as The Replacer – will be added as a playable character in the upcoming Season 1 update.

In this package, you’ll find The Replacer Tracer Pack Operator Bundle which offers two distinct skins for The Replacer – a standard one and an exclusive bonus skin if you own the latest Season 1 BlackCell bundle. Additionally, it provides weapon designs for guns named Quick Wit and Ramifications, along with the animated “Aura +5000” calling card, the lively “Many Hats” emblem, the thrilling “Replacement Killer” finishing move, and a charmed vehicle-mounted weapon.

In the BlackCell edition of The Replacer, Activision advises players to initially purchase the BlackCell package; otherwise, the skin won’t function if you buy the BlackCell bundle after buying the Replacer bundle. Unfortunately, Activision has yet to disclose the pricing details for any of the new Season 01 store bundles.

Stormare himself voices The Replacer for this operator bundle.

Activision produced over two dozen Replacer ads for Black Ops 6, with Michael Bay replacing various individuals such as TV presenters, popes, football stars like Kyler Murray, boxers like Canelo Alvarez, podcast hosts including Joe Rogan, and political commentators. You can view all the advertisements on the Call of Duty YouTube channel.

2013 saw the debut of Stormare’s character, The Replacer, and it has been a consistent element in Activision’s marketing strategies for the Black Ops series. Last month, during NFL games, the first commercial for Black Ops 6 featuring The Replacer was premiered.

“The Replacer has officially taken over and is now part of the game.” or “The Replacer’s dominance in #BlackOps6 has been established, and he will soon be playable within the game after Season 01 launches.

The Character Swapper has taken over a character within Call of Duty: Warzone, specifically Graves, which has led some to speculate that Activision might eventually incorporate him into the game. Now, it appears this is becoming a reality. Activision announced that the Replacer package will become available shortly following the commencement of Season 1 on November 14.

Besides the Replacer pack, players will also receive fresh maps, gameplay modes, and weapons, including the new Warzone map, known as Area 99. For detailed information about all the updates in Season 1, you can check out Activision’s comprehensive blog post.
