How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The statue stands on its mountain in the background of the Rio missions and the Favela multiplayer map, and a Spec Ops mission is named after it.
The real place
The 30 m Art Deco statue on Corcovado mountain was completed in 1931. It was named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007.
Visiting
Take the Corcovado rack railway from Cosme Velho or an official van. Go early on a clear morning, as cloud often hides the summit later in the day.
