Call of Duty has reached a point where it is launching numerous crossovers, similar to Fortnite. However, its fans are loving these crossovers and have suggested some interesting ideas for future collaborations. These ideas include introducing anti-heroes like the merciless Punisher and the eccentric Deadpool who can break the fourth wall. The possibilities of these collaborations are limitless in the video game format.
Crossovers are something Marvel is known for, especially with their shared film franchise called the Marvel Cinematic Universe where countless heroes all reside within one universe, which may no longer be the case due to the unraveling of the Multiverse, giving the heroes across all forms of media a true chance of coexisting without any hindrances like copyright. Perhaps it will be an explainer for future crossovers outside the property like Call of Duty and other popular media.
Crossovers Are Inevitable… Fans Want To See Deadpool and Punisher Make An Appearance In Call of Duty
Superheroes appearing in the game are nothing new, Call of Duty once had a collaboration with Prime Video’s The Boys where certain characters appear and concepts from the series are integrated like the use of Temp V which will grant players superpowers for a limited amount of time. Fans have been dropping names from various comic book franchises.

There is a running theme with the characters chosen on this specific post of X user DETONATEDcom, all of them are accustomed to warfare, all perfect candidates for a Call of Duty crossover. Frank Castle was a former marine and Deadpool was a former Special Forces operative. These characters are soaked with blood and are not too subtle in their work on the field.
Other popular franchises like the MonsterVerse will also be heading into the battlefield right on time for the release of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire which can draw a lot of attention. This business move could benefit two companies and their fans.
Deadpool Killed Call Of Duty: Marvel Can Flip The World With This Crossover
There is no doubt that the third Deadpool movie has the potential to be the biggest comic book movie event of all time. The film will connect to the expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe and bring in the highly respected actor, Hugh Jackman, who played Wolverine for 24 years. Together, they will travel through the Multiverse and cause chaos. It would be a terrible shame if Marvel were to miss out on this opportunity.
Developers should take note of the resurgence of iconic characters like the Punisher, who will appear in Daredevil: Born Again. The character’s increasing popularity could be leveraged in a more immersive manner, such as in gaming, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on this trend.
Crossovers are good for business, and for fans of both franchises and are rarely seen on this scale. Do you think Marvel should collaborate with Call of Duty for their newest Deadpool movie? Share your thoughts down below!
