SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Descent, the third DLC pack for Call of Duty®: Black
Ops III
, the best-selling console video game on next generation
platforms*, is available today, first on PlayStation 4 with other
next-gen platforms to follow**. Published by Activision Publishing,
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI)
and developed by Treyarch, Call of Duty®: Black Ops III Descent,
takes players across the globe to four new multiplayer locales and an
all-new Zombies experience in the classic Origins saga.

“From the beginning of development, Treyarch has been committed to
delivering the most epic gameplay experiences we have ever created. Descent
continues to make good on that promise, while answering the community’s
requests for a re-imagining of Raid, the beloved multiplayer map
from Call of Duty®: Black Ops II,” said Mark Lamia, Studio
Head, Treyarch. “In addition to four amazing Multiplayer maps, the
Zombies team is flat out bringing it with our newest chapter, Gorod
Krovi,
harkening back to Treyarch’s roots, with a twisted Stalingrad
experience.”

Call of Duty: Black Ops III Descent comes packed
with four new multiplayer maps that offer fans non-stop run and gun
action in a cryogenic penitentiary, a Viking hamlet, a robot death-match
arena and a contemporary reconstruction of an ancient Roman estate:

  • Empire: Fan favorite map Raid
    returns, re-imagined in this classic, medium-sized map as an authentic
    Roman villa, where a classic map structure mixes with the new gameplay
    mechanics of Black Ops III.
  • Berserk: A Viking village frozen
    in time enlists players to fight through blizzards, for control of the
    center bridge. This medium-sized map features wooden buildings, deadly
    rocky outcroppings, and tight chokepoints.
  • Cryogen: Located far in the Dead
    Sea, this isolated compound holds some of the world’s most dangerous
    criminals in frozen isolation. Sentry towers keep watch over the small
    map’s circular design as frenetic combat and wall running attacks
    abound.
  • Rumble: Gamers battle amongst
    larger-than-life mechanized warriors in this medium-sized map, which
    funnels high-speed combat to the central arena, where players battle
    their way through fallen mechs and pyrotechnics.

Descent transports players to an alternate-timeline of
Stalingrad in the newest twisted chapter of the Origins Zombies
storyline, Gorod Krovi. Players face-off against a swarm of
mechanized zombie soldiers and avoid hell-fire from aerial dragon
assaults, all in the midst of a raging battle within the remnants of
Nikolai’s motherland. Gorod Krovi delivers a harrowing Zombies
experience, filled with horrifying new enemies, exciting new gameplay
mechanics and an epic set of undead-annihilating weapons.
