How to play as Art the Clown in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone

Time to terrify the warzone.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is dominating the franchise’s news cycle, but that’s not to say that there isn’t more going on in the Call of Duty world, as Warzone is adding Terrifier‘s Art the Clown to the game.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is almost a full year into its run, and Call of Duty: Warzone remains a favorite among many first-person shooter and battle royale game enthusiasts. To keep fans of those games engaged ahead of Black Ops 6‘s release, some spooky seasonal DLC is on its way, just in time for the Halloween season.

On September 10, it came to light that the Modern Warfare 3 event The Haunting is on its way, along with all kinds of spooky goodies. Most notably, several horror icons will be added to the game. While Michael Myers from the Halloween franchise and Sam from the Trick ‘r Treat series are worth getting excited about, the one who has really created a buzz in the horror and Call of Duty communities is Art the Clown. The murderous clown, portrayed by David Howard Thornton, is the centerpiece of director Damien Leone’s Terrifier film series, which launched in 2016.

In short order, Art has become quite beloved by lovers of all things scary. So, if you are one of these individuals, you’re likely wondering how you can play as him in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. Here’s how and when you can access him.

You’ll have to pay up to play as Art

Thankfully, accessing Art in the two aforementioned Call of Duty titles doesn’t require anything crazy. No convoluted in-game requirements, no absurd Easter egg. That said, given that this is a Call of Duty add-on (and a licensed one, at that), Art isn’t a free download.

Instead, you’ll have to pay up over in the Call of Duty Store if you want to terrify the war zone as the creepy horror rising star. Art is available as part of the Tracer Pack: Terrifier Operator Bundle. At the time of publication, the exact price has not been revealed, but surely it will soon.

If the Tracer Pack follows historical precedent, it’ll likely run $19.99 or 2,400 CoD points when it becomes available at the start of the Haunting event on September 18. While that may seem like a lot of money for just the Art skin, you do get a bit more bang for your buck. Aside from the Operator skin, the bundle is also advertised to include a Terrifier weapon blueprint, the Miles County Killer weapon blueprint, a weapon charm, a weapon sticker, a large decal, a Terrifier emblem and a Terrifier loading screen. Now that’s more like it.

The Haunting event runs from September 18 to October 16, so if you want to get in on all the terrifying fun and secure yourself an Art the Clown Operator skin, that’s the time to do so.
