The newCall of Dutybundle celebrating the release ofCrash Team Rumblehas been temporarily removed from the in-game store due to being falsely priced. Over the past several yearsCall of DutyandWarzonehave become populated with many crossovers featuring popular movie characters, streamers, or fellow Activision properties likeCrash Bandicoot.TheCrash Bandicootcosmetic Tracer Pack was revealed just a day ahead ofCrash Team Rumble’s releaseand contains a total of nine items, including three stickers and an emblem. The big ticket features of the pack are two weapon blueprints covered inCrash Team Rumbleart, one for the Fennec 45 SMG and the other for the SP-X 80 sniper rifle. Additionally, the bundle gives players aCrash-themed ATV skin for use inWarzone, as well as a hilarious Wumpa skin for grenades.RELATED:Call of Duty: Warzone Player Discovers Secret Tunnel On Vondel MapCall of Dutypacks that don’t contain character skins typically fall around the 1800 COD points range or lower. However, thisCrashpack was incorrectly priced at a whopping 2400 points, costing players $25 to purchase, $5 shy of theprice ofCrash Team Rumbleitself.Call of Dutytook to Twitter to assure fans that the price was a mistake and that the pack will be temporarily unavailable while the price is corrected. Additionally,Call of Dutyannounced that 600 COD points will be refunded to players who bought the bundle at the incorrect 2400 point price.
As this has been unfolding there have been many confused fans who have been looking to purchase the bundle but are unable to find it. Many fans are still disgruntled at the correct price, as 1800 COD points equates to just under $20, an exorbitant amount of money for what’s essentially two weapon blueprints and a vehicle skin. Some would say $25 for aCall of Dutycharacter skin pack is also outrageous despite many of the skins being of high quality, especially the crossover skins featuring popular characters likeTMNT’s Shredder.
While it’s great that big live service games in themodern era likeCall of Dutyoffer so many cosmetic options to personalize characters and weapons, microtransactions in video games can be grueling for gamers, and they seem to be getting more expensive as prices for games themselves also rise. Fans who are eager to get their hands on theCrash-themed items in the bundle will have to wait a bit longer, as no ETA has been given for the pack’s inevitable return to theCall of Dutystore.
