Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Awakening DLC Details

4.6
Black Ops 3’s first downloadable content add-on, Awakening, arriving early next year.

According to the studio, Awakening lands first on PlayStation 4 on February 2 and will eventually make its way to Xbox One and PC at a later date — likely one month later. PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 players are out of luck. Like map packs for previous Call of Duty games, Awakening comes with four new multiplayer maps and a new installment in an ongoing Zombies saga.

Multiplayer Maps:
Gauntlet: Grounded in a military training facility, Gauntlet plays up the core philosophy of Treyarch’s classic three lane map structure with distinct variety in visuals and gameplay. Each of the three primary lanes has a unique environment as players battle through a sprawling jungle, sub-zero artic zone and rainy urban cityscape.
Splash: Set in an abandoned water theme park, this vibrant and playful map delivers an imaginative environment complete with waterslides, a wrecked pirate ship, and a lazy river ride that winds through a fantastical forgotten city. Splash is designed to drive an open flow of combat, including plenty of opportunities for underwater gameplay.
Rise: Set in the snowy outskirts of Zurich, Rise is a Coalescence Corporation construction project for a massive subterranean research campus. The design of the map caters to a mix of classic Call of Duty cover combat alongside strategic core movement opportunities, with each section of the map offering distinctly different styles of gameplay.
Skyjacked: Set on a security VTOL in the clouds over urban Zurich, Skyjacked is a reimagined version of the popular Call of Duty®: Black Ops II multiplayer map Hijacked, and retains the same fast and frenetic gameplay from one of the most popular maps in Call of Duty® history, but with a twist. Skyjacked gives players the opportunity to explore the map in a variety of new ways thanks to the all-new core movement system in Black Ops III.
Zombies:
Der Eisendrache, the first chapter of Call of Duty: Black Ops III‘s Zombies DLC adventure will take players on an epic journey with the Origin characters Richtofen, Nicolai, Takeo, and Dempsey. Set in an eerie medieval castle built upon an ancient site of unspeakable horror, massive deposits of Element 115 have recently been discovered, delivering inspired new gameplay and – in Zombies tradition – a variety of exciting plot twists and surprises that fans will have the opportunity to discover for themselves.

I really want this DLC when it is out.

Wakka I honestly think all DLC is pointless


Well, same, except for the zombies dlcs , zombies u can play over and over and always have fun .! With that, the more Zombies DLCs the better. I hope they do like they did on Black Ops and have a dlc just for zombie maps, that'd be so awesome!! Because I mean its useless in my opinion to buy a dlc for the zombies if it comes with multiplayer maps, if there was more zombie maps and no multiplayer maps like there Resurection on Black Ops, that'd be absolutely amazing!!

I wish they would bring out a DLC with orignal play style for zombies and not this complicated zombie play style they have. I loved how it was so simple back then, just run and gun

All the maps look like fun, especially Skyjacked since I enjoyed Hijacked in BO2.
