Call Of Duty Follows GTA’s Lead On Black Lives Matter

Activision’s Call of Duty knows the importance of Black Lives Matter. The huge gaming franchise added an in-game message on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare to show its support, shortly after Grand Theft Auto made its own BLM statement.

Infinity Ward just released an update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare that adds a splash screen message in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Players are being told they need to update their client upon finishing multiplayer games, and once they do, the message appears on screen. “Our community is hurting,” the statement reads. “The systemic inequalities our community experiences are once again center stage. Call of Duty and Infinity Ward stand for equality and inclusion. We stand against the racism and injustice our Black community endures. Until change happens and Black Lives Matter, we will never truly be the community we strive to be.” (The Verge)
