The "Battle Buddy: NPC Pack," a leaked cosmetic package, appears to be inspired by a popular TikTok craze. For those who are not familiar, NPCs (non-player characters) who live-stream and respond to various stickers supplied by viewers have become increasingly popular on the app TikTok. Popular streamers make hundreds of dollars each day by repeating words like "Yes yes yes" and "So good," which are commonly associated with real-world money.

Call of Duty now seems prepared to embrace this fad with the "Battle Buddy: NPC Pack." There are sayings in this collection like "Yeah! Nom, Nom, Nom, Nom, Nom!" and "You got shot! Among other things, "Ouchie! Ouchie!" elicited a range of responses from the Call of Duty community.

Concern over this bundle has been raised by other players, who shared photographs and words like "This is not good." Others have been let down by the theme, describing it as fairly "cringe" in comparison to earlier options.

One user remarked, "Some of the 'Battle Buddy' variants are cool, but this one is simply cringe.

Some players, on the other hand, were truly excited about the package and imitated Pinkydoll, a well-known TikTok live NPC streamer, by saying things like "Ice cream so good GANG GANG GANG GANG."

It's critical to remember that player reactions are based on the leaked information and that these leaks are not confirmed to be affecting the actual game. Whatever the case, the prospective release of the "Battle Buddy: NPC Pack" has undoubtedly stirred up a variety of emotions among the Call of Duty community, illuminating the wide range of viewpoints present among the player base.
