These will be known as cases in Black Ops 4 and you’ll be able to earn them by playing Blackout or multiplayer. You’ll also be able to purchase these on the Black Market as per a Treyarch blog. These cases in Black Ops 4 have previously been known as supply drops in other CoD’s.
You’ll also be able to play Operation Grand Heist on other platforms next week. The timing of the releases of these cases/supply drops has varied in each Call of Duty. In Black Ops 3, supply drops contained a whole host of new weapons and not just cosmetic items.
