Persona 5 Skins Turn COD Mobile Into a Crossover Nightmare

Kotaku argues that Call of Duty Mobile's new Persona 5 Royal skins — turning Joker, Ann, Makoto, and Sumire into near-photoreal operators for a July 1 event — exemplify the ongoing crossover fatigue, noting COD’s history of collabs (The Boys, Godzilla) and Infinity Ward’s pledge to avoid clowny skins, and expressing discomfort at how these cross-promotions threaten the games’ identities.
