Select players who purchased retail PC copies of Call of Duty: Black Ops II are discovering an odd, frustrating surprise.
Reports from the Call of Duty forums, Steam, and Reddit (among other sites) are claiming the second installation disc for Activision’s shooter is actually for Mass Effect 2.
Along with not making a whole lot of sense, the issue is preventing players from installing the game via retail discs – though each copy comes with a Steam key that allows the game to be downloaded in its entirety via digital means.
Activision has yet to provide any official comment on the mistake, but with a product from a completely different publisher involved it seems likely the situation would stem from a manufacturer error.
