"Activision has released a new trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 featuring Peter Stormare's fan-favorite fictional character, The Replacer. But the twist with this new ad is that The Replacer is busy on a space flight to Mars with celebrities, so he needs to call in "Replacer replacers." Activision said in a news release that the video is a "tongue-in-cheek play on the Blue Origin celebrity space adventure we saw unfold this year, but this time things go sideways...""
"That's a reference to Jeff Bezos' space company, which sent celebrities like Katy Perry, Gayle King, and his now-wife, Lauren Sanchez, to low orbit. The mission was roundly mocked for being tone-deaf and cringey, and now Activision is joining in and making a lighthearted jab at it as well. The celebrities aboard this fictional flight for the Black Ops 7 ad include Jake Paul ("first problem child on Mars") and Love Island's Huda Mustafa ("first baddie on Mars")."
Activision released a trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 that places Peter Stormare's character The Replacer on a celebrity-filled Mars space flight and calls for "Replacer replacers." Activision framed the trailer as a tongue-in-cheek play on recent celebrity space adventures. The fictional passenger list includes Jake Paul and Love Island's Huda Mustafa, while Terry Crews and Nikki Glaser respond from "Replacer HQ" to become the next Replacers. The Replacer has been a franchise fixture and was playable in Black Ops 6. Black Ops 7 launches November 14 on consoles and PC and will be on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate at launch.
