Welcome to the world of Call of Duty: Black Ops III, the highly anticipated first-person shooter game set for release in early November. What follows is the exclusive behind-the-scenes story of how Lynch put his stamp on the blockbuster franchise. The game has long captured his imagination. Now it will carry his likeness, giving him the distinction of being the first athlete to appear as a character in a Call of Duty game.
Lynch says his COD fandom was sparked during his college days at Cal. The nine-year NFL veteran now logs on daily for battles with teammates old and new, because “it’s a cool way to keep in contact,” he says. “It’s a fun-loving way to let off some stress.” As a bonus, the game aligns with Lynch’s on-field philosophy. “You’re shooting up everything but always fighting for a bigger picture. The whole game is Beast Mode.”
