The single investigator has a tough job. They have access to trophy systems, stimshots, and hand cannons, and can see the footprints of an attacker when investigating a dead body. They can issue wanted orders on players they suspect of foul play. It’s also up to the investigator to gather clues and convince the other players to go along with them. They’ll have to be very good at communicating to pull it all together.

Being built from the various bits of CoD will probably mean that random games are less formal thanAmong Us, where the structure works in service of the whole goal. In CoD, there are guns and the players aren’t known for using voice chat in the calm, relaxing manner that a murder investigation requires. But it’s the only thing that would ever get me to playCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, really.

Season 5, with the rest of its updates, perks, playlists, and more,arrives on August 12.
