Yes. Really. Snoop Dogg! The rapper has lent his voice to the game to provide commentary like “Ballistic vests ready. Those are some fine ass threads” and “Rack up points by reaching the enemy portal, ya dig?” Snoop will also provide encouragement to players with pep talks like “Don’t stop! Cap ’em and shank ’em.” Oh man, now we kind of wish Snoop could just narrate out everyday lives. “What interested me most about the project is that my voice could be connected with a game that’s so hip, that’s so hood,” Snoop said in the announcement video. “It’s the coolest game in the hood. All my homies play this game.” The Snoop Dogg voiceover pack will cost $2.99, available on April 22 for Xbox One and Xbox 360\. We suggest sippin’ on some gin and juice while you play. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/65191/snoop-dogg-call-of-duty/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/65191/snoop-dogg-call-of-duty/"},"headline":"Drop Enemies Like They're Hot While You Play Call of Duty, Now Narrated by Snoop Dogg","datePublished":"2014-04-16T18:30:42.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:08:50.849Z","description":"\"It's the coolest game in the hood.
