The mystery of theCall of Duty 2020crates has been solved by a dedicated streamer and his community. After solving what has quickly become known as one of the hardest Easter eggs inCall of Dutyhistory, YouTuber NoahJ456 has released a small clip explaining how his team got to the bottom of a strange mystery.
For those who do not know a bunch of mysterious crates were sent toCall of Dutystreamersacross the world. Each box had instructions to not open it until the 10th at a specific time. Inside of these boxes were projectors with varying images meant to be pieced together in an elaborate puzzle.

Streamer NoahJ456 has unveiled how he and his friends pieced together such a unique mystery. Starting with several differentCall of Dutythemed slides on a projectorthe streamer combined different letters, symbols, and varying bits of information with several other package recipients, as each box held unique slides. From there they pieced together a teaser of the map Summit, which had just received a map update on bothBlack OpsandBlack Ops 4.Summit’s computers had images that matched those found on the projector screens.
Combining those with the projector, they created a key that used the clocks on the map to decode a cipher, which produced the phrase “turn 11 white.” Shortly after they discovered a second message which read: “Bish you were here” which was a reference to a famous chessmatch during the Cold Warbetween USA and Russia.
From there they combined both pieces of information to determine what happened on turn 11 white during that game to discover that a pawn took a pawn instigating the biggest blunder in chess history. This leads them to pawntakespawn.com which reveals a website that looks like theCall of Dutyrelease location.
To double down their victory, Activision contacted them informing them that this was only the first step towards the full reveal and that more puzzles will be coming in the near future. All eyes on are on the blank TV for more information as the clock on right-hand side blinks waiting to be set with the appropriate launch date and count down. There will be even more chaos andpuzzle-solving goodness in theCall of Dutycommunity come Friday when the next step is revealed and the race for answers is on once again.
