Added Co-Studio Head of Treyarch, Dan Bunting, “It’s been incredible watching the competitive community play Black Ops 4 this season, especially at the level of competition that we’ve seen throughout the playoffs – it’s been intense.” Fellow Co-Studio Head Mark Gordon added, “Watching purely as fans has been a blast. Thank you to all the players who competed this season, as well as fans and viewers everywhere who have enjoyed the action like we have – we can’t wait to see who takes home the title on Sunday.”
