Will American Dad Dominate Call of Duty? Everything You Need to Know About This Surprising Crossover

Should You Buy the American Dad Bundle in Call of Duty? Complete Price Breakdown and Release Dates

I've been following the gaming world for years, and this news caught me off guard. Call of Duty is bringing American Dad characters into Black Ops 6 and Warzone. This isn't just a rumor anymore - dataminers found real evidence in the game files.

The timing makes sense. We just got Beavis and Butt-Head characters, and now another adult cartoon show is joining the party. It's part of something called the "CODtoons" event that's happening this season.

Who Are The New Characters Coming to Call of Duty?

Two main characters from American Dad are getting the Call of Duty treatment:

Stan Smith

The CIA agent dad who always wears his blue suit. He's getting one operator skin that looks just like him from the TV show.

Roger

The sarcastic alien who lives with the Smith family. This character is getting three different skins, all showing him in various mechanical disguises.

Both characters use the same cartoon-style graphics as the Beavis and Butt-Head skins we already have. The developers are keeping that animated look consistent across all these crossovers.

How Much Will These Bundles Cost You?

Here's where it gets expensive:

  • Stan Smith Bundle: 2,400 COD Points (about $20)
  • One Stan Smith operator skin
  • Two weapon blueprints
  • Various other cosmetics
  • Roger Bundle: 2,800 COD Points (about $30)
  • Three different Roger skins
  • Two weapon blueprints
  • Additional cosmetic items

I think these prices are steep for what you get. But if you're a huge American Dad fan, you might find the value worth it.

What Free Items Can You Earn?

Not everything costs money. The CODtoons event will give away some American Dad items for free:

  1. Smith Household Loading Screen - Complete specific challenges in multiplayer, zombies, or Warzone
  2. "Highly Productive" Animated Calling Card - Earn the most score in Party Ops matches
  3. "Stan Special" GS45 Blueprint - Win matches in CODtoons mode or complete vehicle kills in Warzone

These free rewards make the crossover more accessible to players who don't want to spend money.

When Will This Content Actually Release?

Based on leaked information, here's the timeline I'm seeing:

  • July 17th: Stan Smith bundle releases
  • July 20th: Roger bundle releases
  • CODtoons Event: Likely starts around July 17th

Remember, these dates come from leaks, not official announcements. Things could change.

Why Is Call of Duty Doing So Many Cartoon Crossovers?

I think Activision is testing something new. They're seeing how players react to these adult animated show collaborations. The Beavis and Butt-Head event was successful, so they're doubling down with American Dad.

This strategy makes business sense. These crossovers:

  • Attract new players who love these shows
  • Generate significant revenue from bundle sales
  • Create social media buzz and free marketing
  • Keep existing players engaged with fresh content

Should You Buy These Bundles?

This depends on your situation. Consider these factors:

Buy if you:

  • Love American Dad and want to show it in-game
  • Have disposable income for gaming cosmetics
  • Enjoy collecting rare operator skins
  • Want to stand out in matches

Skip if you:

  • Think $20-30 is too much for cosmetics
  • Don't care about American Dad
  • Prefer spending money on gameplay content
  • Already have enough operator skins

What This Means for Call of Duty's Future

These cartoon crossovers signal a shift in Call of Duty's content strategy. We're moving away from just military themes toward pop culture collaborations.

I expect more adult animated shows to join soon. The Simpsons was mentioned in leaks, though that's not confirmed. Other shows like Family Guy or South Park could follow.

This approach keeps Call of Duty relevant in popular culture while generating new revenue streams. It's smart business, even if some traditional fans don't love it.

The American Dad crossover shows how gaming and entertainment are blending together. While the prices are high, the quality looks good based on early footage.

If you're a fan of both Call of Duty and American Dad, this crossover offers something unique. Just remember that cosmetics don't improve your gameplay - they're purely for fun and self-expression.

The free rewards through the CODtoons event make this crossover accessible to everyone, which I appreciate. You can participate without spending money.
