Call of Duty: Modern Warfare's Tomogunchi virtual pets are now available and allow players to wear a cute dog, panda, ghost, and more on their wrist that each have moods and can all evolve depending on how you perform in-game.
Revealed by Activision through a fictional Rothwynn Industries paid advertisement, these new Tomogunchi can be purchased in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare store for 1,000 CP or $10 USD, and must be equipped to use.

When you first join a match with the Tomogunchi equipped, it will appear as an egg ready to hatch. Shortly thereafter, a new baby Tomogunchi will emerge as your new best friend. By taking care of its needs, you will be able to grow it into a Child, a Teen, and a full Adult. Rothwynn also teases there may be "multiple pet forms and options to discover."
Pressing the d-pad up or the up-arrow key will allow players to use the "Watch Interact" gesture and check up on your Tomogunchi. By doing so, you will be able to see its four faces that represent its emotional states - Hungry, Dirty, Unruly, and Sleepy.
These faces will only appear when your one of your pet's needs must be met. Kills, Objective Scoring, Killstreaks, and Wins all lead to a happy Tomogunchi. However, failing to do so can cause your friend to go "from happy to neutral, to sad, and finally… to the grave!"

Underneath your Tomogunchi is a "bonus charge" meter and represents "a bonus method of evolving your pet more quickly than normal." Each pet requires either Capture, Killstreaks, Plants, or Top Three Wins to fill the meter.
