Given that Warzone now includes Nicki Minaj as a playable character, it should come as no surprise to see Activision finding new and more ridiculous ways to monetize Warzone. The next type of cosmetic they're going to start selling will be different colored smoke grenades. The first of these “Smoke Grenade Skins” will be available with the premium version of the Battle Pass, BlackCell.
It was inevitable that we would see this type of cosmetic sold one day. To be honest, we think colored smoke grenades sound kind of cool, especially because smoke grenades have long been part of the Warzone meta. Let's just hope MW3 doesn't go completely wild with smoke grenade colors, we don't want to see effects added as well.
