In August 2016 , Activision sent mysterious metal packages to YouTubers in the '' Call of Duty '' community . Each came with a combination lock and a countdown timer . A code was sent to all recipients to open the boxes once the timer reached 1 minute . Each box contained a variety of 80 's - themed apparel , plus a cassette player and a VHS tape , which contained the reveal trailer for Zombies in Spaceland . An HD version of the trailer was released hours after , along with a reveal of the game 's new mechanics , as well as the " Zombies in Spaceland " bonus preorder pack , which contains a weapon camouflage , an animated player card , as well as a " Fate and Fortune Card Pack " for use in the Zombies mode . The official reveal of '' Infinite Warfare '' s multiplayer mode took place during the Call of Duty XP 2016 convention , which was held in early September 2016
