Two new Call of Duty: Vanguard Operators have officially been revealed ahead of the game’s release, allowing players to get to know the characters they will be playing in the Multiplayer mode.

Call of Duty: Vanguard is almost among us, and now we know much more about the Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies mode, it’s about time they revealed some new Operators.

The latest news revealed two new Operators players will be using in Multiplayer, releasing a blog containing some information on them, as well as quick videos showcasing their characters.

Arthur Kinglsey Operator

The new Operators were revealed on a new PlayStation blog, which makes sense considering Call of Duty will be continuing their exclusivity relationship with PlayStation through Vanguard.

The blog showcased four Operators, two of which we have previously seen and will also be available in the Vanguard Campaign: Arthur Kingsley and Polina Petrova.

For those that didn’t know, you can actually get Arthur Kingsley in Warzone right now, check out our article on how to do so.

The other two are new Operators that haven’t yet been explored, and here are all the details about them.

Daniel Take Yatsu

The first new Call of Duty: Vanguard operator revealed by PlayStation was Daniel Take Yatsu who is an expert marksman that must use his skills to protect his fellow brothers in arms while dealing with the fact that his family is forced into an internment camp in the United States.

You can find the official description of Daniel Take Yatsu below:

“In the movies, there’s often the classic archetype of the cold and unfeeling sniper, calmly dispatching targets one by one.

Daniel’s no slouch as a sniper, but we wanted to depict him as a protector who uses his marksmanship to support his fellow soldiers. His story is also deeply rooted in one of the most shameful chapters of American history: the internment of Japanese citizens in US concentration camps during WWII.

Daniel’s entire world was torn apart when his family was sent to the camps, and like many Japanese Americans, he was drafted into the army to protect a nation who did not consider him an equal citizen. 

Daniel’s feelings about the war and his nation are deeply ambivalent, but he still fights to protect his fellow soldiers and for the nation he believes America could still be one day.”

Padmavati Balan

Vanguard’s second new Operator revealed on October 25 is Padmavati who is from India and has had to deal with conflict her entire life with her fight against the Nazis being her latest in Call of Duty: Vanguard where she uses her leadership and battle-hardened skills to help her comrades secure victory.

You can find her official description below:

“Padmavati is a woman who lost her homeland twice: once to colonialists and then to fascists. Her story is that of a woman whose hope and opportunity for a normal life abruptly vanished when unceasing conflict became a fact of her existence. 

Her character is defined by this duality between fighter and peaceful civilian: Padmavati is a fierce soldier adept at jungle warfare, but also a battle-weary nurse who loves to perform poetry and music. 

Because she understands the true costs of spilled blood, she eschews a romantic view of warfare, but won’t hesitate to demonstrate courage and leadership on the battlefield when called. She dreams of an India whose fate is determined by the will of its own people and is convinced that they will one day prevail.”

There is no doubt that Daniel Take Yatsu and Padmavati Balan will be two Operators who plenty of players choose to step into the shoes of when they are experiencing the action of Call of Duty: Vanguard.

Perhaps you’ll find yourself connected to one of these and who knows, they could end up being the Operator you decide to use in Multiplayer and Warzone.
