A Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War fan believes they have discovered a hidden crossbow in the game. The discovery was made in the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War game mode Gunfight after the player was assigned a random loadout. While most loadouts include familiar weapon builds, this one included something that fans have not seen before.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Gunfight mode is similar to the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare version. Players are assigned randomized loadouts, placed on the map, and put into a game of elimination. The goal is to kill the enemy team, and with the small scale of the maps, there is nowhere a player can easily hide for long.

The clip was posted to Reddit by RegularMan6969, and it shows the player loading into a new round of Gunfight. On the right, fans can see the player's loadout and the crossbow that reads R1 Shadowhunter. While this Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War crossbow has never been seen, the fan shared the news on Reddit for anyone who likes crossbow gameplay. The weapon seems to play like a standard crossbow, but its one-hit kill capacity is lethal at moderate ranges. In the comments, players are already sharing their excitement at the crossbow possibilities that lay in the game's future.

While this is not a confirmation that the crossbow will be added to the game, this bug does suggest that the weapon is at least possible. To appear in Gunfight, the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War weapon needs to already be in the game. Whether or not it's available to players, fans at least now know that the Shadowhunter crossbow exists.

In the comments, players point out that the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies mode Dead Ops allows players access to a similar crossbow. While the one in Dead Ops has a faster fire rate, the one in the video seems to operate as a regular crossbow would. Still, some fans love the idea of a high-risk, high reward weapon due to its many one-shot capabilities.

Crossbow fans share their excitement in the comments, with many of them wanting to bring the crossbow into Call of Duty: Warzone. For many players, it is the ability to bring an alternative weapon to a gunfight that makes the crossbow so exciting of a possibility. Still, it may be some time until this crossbow makes an appearance in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
