Caption: Nicki Minaj and Snoop Dogg featuring in Call of Duty. Season 5 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has been set to drop on 2 August, reports GameSpot with the shooter-style video game set to feature the three rappers as playable characters to celebrate 50 years of hip-hop music. Photos released via the video game's official Instagram account showed Nicki's character, the first female rapper to receive her own operator skin in a major video game - donning pink hair and blue eyeshadow and sporting a pink gun. Meanwhile, Snoop Dogg's character was shown holding a blue and gold gun, dressed in a gold and white jumpsuit with marijuana leaf designs. Video game publisher Activision also announced that players were to receive free hip-hop War Tracks for logging in to Modern Warfare 2 or Warzone between 7 and 16 August. This isn't the first time rappers have appeared in video games. 50 Cent released his own video game, titled 50 Cent: Bulletproof where the gamer played as the Candy Shop rapper seeking vengeance against those who tried to murder him. A series of Def Jam video games were also released in the '00s, where players could fight rappers including DMX and Ludacris. THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
