Shipment’s being decorated for the season for the next two weeks

The Shipment map gets its Christmas on for a two-week period beginning tomorrow and lasting into the new year. As you saw in the ridiculously over-dramatic trailer, there’ll be festive bows and wreaths dangling from the shipping containers that make up the map. They’re flanked by snowmen, who you can’t easily mistake for other players because they so obviouslystand outfrom the rest of Shipment. Probably the nicest touch in the map’s Yuletide makeover are the massive STAY FROSTY messages sprayed over the containers.

DanishEliteSpecial Forces memberKlaus Fiskeris a new operator for Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer and Warzone 2 battle royale, and he sports a very fetching red Christmas hat and scarf. He seems more likely to suplex you into Shipment’s deck than let you sit on his knee, though. You’ll have to fork out 2,400 COD points (£17/$20/€20) for the Klaus bundle, as there’s no way to earn him in-game. The Klaus bundle is live now and comes with the man himself, along with seasonally red Naughty M13B assault rifle and Nice Victus XMR sniper rifle blueprints. The Saint Nick stand-in also gets a suplex finishing move, and Sleigh vehicle skin.

The Christmas-themed update for Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 goes live on December 21st and runs through January 4th. You can grab Modern Warfare 2 onSteamandBattle.net. Warzone 2 is free to play fromSteamandBattle.net. Try not to mistake any grenades for baubles.
