Ambitious and impatient with family politics, Kitsune has forged her own path with Perseus. Available this week in the Season Five Battle Pass.

  • Season 05

When the Yakuza refused to let her join their ranks, Kitsune took matters into her own hands. Cautious, thorough, and effective, she relishes any chance to use the tools of her enemies against them.

Get Kitsune this week at Tier 0 in the Season Five Battle Pass for use in Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone™. Read on to learn more about her Yakuza origins, plus details on her Ultra-rarity Operator Skin unlocked at Tier 100.

Meet Kitsune

Full Name: Kaori “Kitsune” Tanaka

Date of Birth: 12/12/1956

Nationality: Japanese

Birthplace: Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan

Faction: Warsaw Pact

Blood Type: AB+

First Language: Japanese

Service: Perseus

The daughter of Kobe’s most feared Yakuza boss, Kitsune was never content to let her family name open doors for her. By the time she was 15, she had earned the respect of every boss in Kobe.

Contemptuous of the petty political games played by her brothers, she dedicated her time to learning the intricacies of cybersecurity among local underground criminal groups, and under the instruction of her bodyguards trained in martial arts.

By 21, she became Kobe’s most prolific cat burglar. Her ambition and talent, along with the tensions within her family, make her an ideal recruit for Perseus.
