Having caused quite a stir with its arrival, the newest addition to Call of Duty's anime lineup also comes at quite a hefty price, considering it only has a lifeline of around three months.

With Vanguard's yearly cycle coming to a close, pending a Modern Warfare 2 takeover, and promises from the developers that the current Warzone skins will not be ported into the sequel, the economy of bundles and skins has dropped dramatically.

But even with the Terminator crossover and The Umbrella Academy collab also in the works, some fans have still been splashing out on the latest Tracer Pack: Bitrate Banger. They might regret this though, considering the bundle is actually more expensive than the entire of Vanguard.

Call Of Duty Vanguard Price Slashed To A Tenner

I can think of quite a few things that cost a tenner nowadays. A chippy with the partner. A drop of petrol. A handful of Freddos. Call of Duty: Vanguard

After being released nine months ago, Vanguard has now been slashed in price to just $10 at Best Buy for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, an 83% reduction from its original value of $60.

It's an even bigger drop in price for those who splashed $100 on the Ultimate Edition, where you could now get ten copies of Vanguard for that sum.

 

New Anime Bundle Costs More Than Vanguard 

The brand-new anime bundle, Tracer Pack: Bitrate Banger, comes with a singing and dancing H4 Blizen blueprint which has lit up social media and a futuristic spacesuit anime character named "High Bitrate".

The bundle now costs more than Vanguard though, given the game's price cut. Coming in at 2,400 CoD Points, the bundle is worth the equivalent of $20, double the price of the game it features on.

Of course, the skin does double up to Warzone too, although, for a bundle that will only be relevant for three months amid the Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 era, the price is quite steep.
