You may be wondering what in the world do these two things have in common? Well despite the artist being a fan of Call of Duty his newly announce LP titled 'MMLP 2' will be launching the same exact day (Nov 5th) as his debut album.
What better way to promote both the game and his album? As such the song titled 'Survival' has been released about a month ago. The rapper seems to be helping the call of duty series promote sales.
Check out Eminem's new music video Survival which displays game play of Call of Duty Ghosts. Below is the listed music video.
If you are a fan of both the rapper and game this is the music video for you, it shows others dressed in the Call of Duty Ghosts mask as well as Eminem. You also notice the dogs that they used in the game wondering about.
Coming from a personal opinion I do not think the game will deliver that much hype as most Call of duty releases are just the same thing with shinier layouts. As such I am still very excited to play the game as well as hear some new music!
Call of Duty: Ghosts launches November 5th on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U and PC, and on November 22nd on Xbox One and PS4.
