While multipleOperators like Samantha Maxishave been shown off, these new ones have their own style. Coming with the launch of this mid-season patch is Terrell Wolf, a member of NATO. The character has roots in America’s deep south territory of Louisiana. Honing his skills as a hunter in the local bayous, Wolf formally entered service at the age of 18. As a Delta Force sniper, he is a force to be reckoned with. And his finishing move brings along a loyal canine supporter to help Wolf take out targets.
The other Operator is also part of NATO and will be heading to the game sometime during Season 2 Reloaded. Karla Rivas hails from Nicaragua, where she earned her combat experience from battling violent cartels. These gang wars tore apart the surrounding communities, and this pushed Rivas to fight back. Not completely unlike Wolf, this operator also depends on subterfuge with her guerilla-style mechanics. Both Operators will be available as separate store bundles for this season ofCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
