The issue has arisen during a period where developer Raven's quality assurance team is on strike, and Activision Blizzard leadership reportedly hasn't responded to the department's concerns. As reported by [URL='https://charlieintel.com/warzone-players-demand-fix-for-pay-to-win-invisible-skin-ruining-the-game/155316/']CharlieIntel[/URL], the Awoken skin for Call of Duty character Francis (unlocked at Level 100 of the current Battle Pass) has launched with a glitch that, at certain distances, turns players completely invisible, aside from a glowing orange mask. By its nature, the glitch is granting players using the skin an unfair advantage in the game, with some branding it an accidental 'pay-to-win' mechanic.
