"Born in the South Niger Delta, Zosar Kalu is the eldest of three children, helping to raise his younger siblings while his parents pursued political aspirations. His nickname comes from his youngest brother, who was born with dysarthria (a speech disorder) and would pronounce his name 'Zeus.'

Following his year of military service shadowing a Nigerian Army Special Forces Battalion, he enlisted and rose through the ranks of those same Special Forces. At the same time, his family became involved in a high-profile state election but tragically died to a local Al Qatala cell.

Orphaned, and now the last of his name, Zeus established the 'Thunder' Corps, a counterterrorism group dedicated to hunting AQ wherever they hide and bringing them to true justice."

Klaus (Available in Mid-Season 01)

Get this new Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 Operator as part of a bundle set to release during a mid-season update for Season 01. No specific price or an exact date has been revealed at the time of writing.

"A member of Denmark’s Elite Special Forces, Klaus Fisker can almost be considered a living legend among Operators.

Some say his scotopic vision — his natural night vision — was powerful enough to help him navigate a mile in pitch-black darkness before he could read. Others witnessed his exceptional training record, leading his peers with unbridled optimism through exercises.

But legend was made one night on the Urzikstan border, where he carried a wounded comrade 18 miles to the nearest base using the lessons taught by his father . . . and an unusual amount of chocolate that wounded solder carried with him."

Gaz (Available in Mid-Season 01)

Get this new Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 Operator as part of a bundle set to release during a mid-season update for Season 01. No specific price or exact date has been revealed at the time of writing.

"Price’s right-hand man, Gaz became legend in 2019 when his valiancy during an attack on Piccadilly Circus grabbed the attention of the formidable SAS Bravo Team captain. He ultimately joined Price’s elite unit, known as Task Force 141.

During the events of the Modern Warfare II Campaign, Gaz was pivotal in saving CIA Officer Kate Laswell from Al Qatala. Now he will join his squadmates Price, Ghost, and Soap, as well as ally Farah — all who make up Red Team 141 — to help SpecGru maintain peace around the world."
