Throughout the years, Call of Duty has added more and more cosmetics to its games. From Operators to weapon skins, there are plenty of ways to personalize your experience. Now, there's a new cosmetic  to pick up called the Battle Buddy. The Battle Buddy is essentially a virtual assistant that goes into battles with you.

If you are performing well, the Battle Buddy will talk to you and call out Killstreak activations, kills, and even when you use specific weapons. From what we can tell, the Battle Buddy will remain silent if you are not performing well. So the Battle Buddy does not give you a tactical advantage against your opponents without one.

So far there is only one way it looks like how you can get the Battle Buddy in Warzone 2. You will need to unlock or purchase the Aurthur pack through the Battle Pass. The Battle Buddy is named Gwen and from what we can tell, you can equip it to anybody so long as you have it unlocked.

For now, Gwen is the only Battle Buddy that is available in Warzone 2. But it likely won't be that way forever. Activision said that Gwen is the first to come which means that there are going to be more Battle Buddies arriving in the future. So it looks like there is a lot more to look forward to in the upcoming days of Warzone 2.
