On October 26th, several content creators revealed that Activison had sent out slides said to link to another part of the Black Ops Cold War reveal.

The slides feature a range of semaphore letters but their purpose is still unknown.

As several members of the community attempted to begin deciphering what the slides could mean, Black Ops Cold War developer Treyarch posted another cryptic message from the hooded character.

During the message, the figure pulls their hood down and identifies themselves as William Bowman, son of Joseph Bowman, a character from the very first Black Ops Game!

Joseph Bowman appeared alongside Mason and Woods during their time in Vietnam in the first Black Ops game.

During the events of the game, Bowman was killed by a Russian interrogator while captured by the Viet Cong.

Judging by this and his previous messages, Bowman’s son appears to be seeking revenge.
