Spoiler! You shoot men with guns.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 has leaked a full week before its worldwide release. Several videos have appeared on YouTube and other streaming sites showing players working through the campaign.

Leading Treyarch design director David Vonderhaar had this to say on the matter: “If you are going to live-stream the game early, which I don't remotely recommend, you could at least be good at it. :P," he Tweeted last night, before adding, "I'm really glad people are excited for the game. Legit streams coming up later this week and early next. Watch this space."

This is hardly the first time a high profile title has leaked ahead of release. In October Microsoft had numerous videos removed from YouTube when Halo 4 was leaked a full month ahead of its worldwide launch.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is released worldwide for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC on November 13th. A Wii U version will be available upon the console’s launch, also in November.
