Arrowhead will likely be hoping it can hold onto this newfound popularity for a little while, and ambitious crossovers reportedly in development would be a good way to do that. Shortly after the Omens of Tyranny update went live, it was discovered that a potential cr🍒ossover with Killzone could be added to the game via a Premiu🍌m Warbond. If 🔯you're a Killzone fan, you take whatever you can get these days.
