BO6 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Crossover Disappoints Fans Due to Exorbitant Prices

Black Ops 6's latest crossover with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) has sparked significant backlash from fans due to the exorbitant prices of the new skins. This follows a pattern of expensive cosmetic items within the game, fueling further discontent among players.

Black Ops 6 Faces Fan Backlash Over Pricing

High-Cost TMNT Skins in BO6

Season 2 Reloaded's TMNT crossover features Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello skins, each priced at $20. Master Splinter's skin is available via the premium Battle Pass track for $10. Acquiring all five skins costs a total of $100, excluding a $10 TMNT-themed weapon blueprint. This pricing model has drawn sharp criticism, particularly considering Black Ops 6's $69.99 price tag. Comparisons to free-to-play games like Fortnite, where similar bundles are significantly cheaper, have fueled the outrage. Reddit user neverclaimsurv commented, "That is INSANE...In Fortnite I think I paid $25.00 for all 4 turtles, and that’s a free game."

Adding to the frustration is the likelihood that these skins will not carry over to future Black Ops installments. This means players' significant investment in these cosmetics will be lost with the next game's release. Reddit user SellMeYourSirin noted, "It has everything to do with the fact a full price game (that’s likely gonna be replaced within the next year) has THREE tiers of battle passes." The game's tiered Battle Pass system, with two paid tiers in addition to the free tier, further contributes to player dissatisfaction.

Despite being the highest-grossing video game in the United States in 2024, Activision's continued reliance on costly crossover events remains a point of contention. However, sustained fan pressure could potentially influence a change in this monetization strategy.

Black Ops 6's Mixed Steam Reception

Black Ops 6 currently holds a "Mixed" rating on Steam, with only 47% of 10,696 user reviews recommending the game. Criticisms extend beyond pricing, encompassing technical issues such as game crashes and widespread reports of hackers ruining the multiplayer experience. The increasing use of AI within the game is also a source of complaint for many players.

Steam user LemonRain illustrates the technical problems, stating, "this game has had problems with hard crashing since launch, but the latest update has made it so I can’t complete a single match. Reinstalling. Safe mode. Support. Nothing works and I have given up." Other users report encountering hackers who can instantly kill all opponents, even before matches begin, resulting in frustrating gameplay experiences. One player described waiting 15 minutes in a lobby only to be matched with hackers.

In protest against Activision's increased reliance on AI, some users are submitting negative reviews generated by AI chatbots like ChatGPT. Steam user Rundur exemplifies this, writing, "Since Activision can't be bothered hiring real people anymore, I've decided to take advantage of AI myself and ask ChatGPT to write this negative review for me. Enjoy."

Despite the considerable negative feedback, Black Ops 6 continues to generate substantial revenue through its costly Battle Passes, highlighting the ongoing tension between player dissatisfaction and the game's financial success.
