TheJohn Wickfilm series has arguably become one of the most popular new action movie franchises of the past decade, with superstar Keanu Reeves at the helm and four mainline films having been released since 2014. The world ofJohn Wickhas continued to expand beyond the four core films, as the Peacock spin-off seriesThe Continentalwas released in 2023, and a new spin-off film calledFrom the World of John Wick: Ballerinais set to hit the big screen on June 6. It’s considered one of the biggest blockbuster movies of summer, next to the likes ofJurassic World RebirthandMarvel’sThe Fantastic Four: First Steps.
The hype forBallerinais entering the gaming world, asCall of Dutyhas announced a crossover with the new film. A Twitter post reveals that Ana de Armas' Eve Macarro will become a playable operator inBlack Ops 6as part of Season 4, which is set to launch on May 29.

Information regarding the exact release day of the bundle and the contents included remains a mystery.
Call of Duty Reveals Crossover With John Wick Ballerina Film
SomeBlack Ops 6fans underCall of Duty’s post voiced their disappointment that the Baba Yaga himself,John Wick, isn’t also being added to the game, despite him showing face inBallerina’s trailers. It’s not unheard of for theseCall of Dutymovie crossovers to bring in multiple characters from a film, as last year’sDune: Part Twocollab sawPaul Atreides and Feyd-Rautha Harkonnenboth make it intoModern Warfare 3.If anything, Wick’s omission fromBlack Ops 6may indicate that he has a much smaller role in theBallerinafilm. Considering theseCall of Dutycrossovers typically serve as promotions for the show or TV series they’re tied to, it makes more sense for de Armas’Ballerinato be the star of the show for this specific collab.
Fans can expect to learn more about the contents ofCall of Duty’sBallerinabundle sometime between whenSeason 4 ofBlack Ops 6begins on May 29 and when the film releases on June 6. As per past collab bundles, they usually don’t become available on day one of the new season but are instead drip-fed throughout the weeks and months, so fans shouldn’t expect theBallerinabundle to be available right when Season 4 starts.
