In celebration of the fifth and final season of “The Boys,” which launched this week on Prime Video, the satirical superhero series is crossing over into Call of Duty: Mobile.
Launching in the summer, the in-game integration will feature three playable characters from “The Boys,” themed bundles and rewards, and show-inspired weapons and content, per Variety.
Released in 2019, Call of Duty: Mobile is a free-to-play shooter mobile game developed by TiMi Studio Group and published by Activision for Android and IOS.
Additional “The Boys” collaborations slated for this year include Thrilljoy and Youtooz figures, Fun.com costumes, Dr. Squatch soap, Four Sigmatic coffee, G Fuel energy drinks, and apparel from Shoe Palace, Sana, Whoosis, and Ripple Junction.
“‘The Boys’ has become a fearless cultural force, known for pushing boundaries and redefining the superhero genre,” said Jamie Stevens, EVP, Worldwide Consumer Products, Sony Pictures Entertainment. “For the final season, we focused on partnering with brands that authentically align with the series’ bold tone and devoted fan base, creating products and experiences that extend the world of Vought and our fan-favorite vigilantes, ‘The Boys,’ in ways that feel immersive, unexpected and globally resonant.”
Based on the New York Times bestselling comic of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, “The Boys” is created by showrunner Eric Kripke (“Supernatural”).
In the final season, it’s Homelander’s world, completely subject to his erratic, egomaniacal whims. Hughie, Mother’s Milk, and Frenchie are imprisoned in a “Freedom Camp.” Annie struggles to mount a resistance against the overwhelming Supe force. Kimiko is nowhere to be found.
But when Butcher reappears, ready and willing to use a virus that will wipe all Supes off the map, he sets in motion a chain of events that will forever change the world and everyone in it.
If you can’t wait to play as “The Boys” characters in Call of Duty, the stealth-action VR game The Boys: Trigger Warning is available now for Meta Quest and PlayStation VR2.
