Three days ahead of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3’s official global reveal this Sunday, April 26, Activision has released yet another teaser trailer, this time diving into what looks like the game’s potential setting and story.

Made up of both historical and fictional live-action footage, the teaser documents mankind’s experimentation with technology, implants, and cybernetics in between the year 1993 all the way up to the year 2065.

As the rumors have suggested, the trailer seems to indicate that Black Ops 3 will revolve heavily around the use of neural control, limb replacements and their application in civilian life and in the military. The very end of the trailer hints that enhanced player movement will once again play a role as a soldier with prosthetic arms and legs dashes up to the cameraman at blazing fast speeds, knocking him or her over.

The trailer does have a few notable ties to some of the previous teaser material that has been revealed thus far, including images of the recent Call of Duty Snapchats. A few locations that were clearly labeled in the footage include Ethiopia, Singapore, Cairo, and Zurich, are all also coordinates that were spotted in Black Ops 3’s first teaser trailer.

The new video also appears make references to Element 115, a possible link to Black Ops Zombies or a hint that the substance might have something to do with the game’s main story arch.



it might be worth noting that both Black Ops 3 teasers thus far have had no signs of Xbox branding and were both advertised on the official PlayStation YouTube channel before Xbox One’s. Could this mean a shift in marketing focus from Xbox to PlayStation? It’s at least something to think about.

Interestingly, a mysterious new website called Courtoptic has also surfaced, which is the same brand of retinal implants advertised in the teaser trailer. The URL is http://www.courtoptic2055.com/, but within the site’s source code, you’ll find this password, once again referencing “Bluebird”:
