Ascendance, the second massive DLC pack for Call of Duty®: Advanced
Warfare (2014's top-selling console video game in the world, according to the
NPD Group and Gfk based on physical game unit sell-through), is coming to
PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PC on April 30. The definitive DLC package,
with its four new thrilling maps, the formidable OHM, a 2-in-1 directed energy
light machine gun/shotgun, the OHM Werewolf custom variant, and the all-new Exo
Grapple ability and playlist delivering a faster way to reach strategic vantage
points or a brutal secondary weapon to take down the competition, exclusively on
Ascendance maps.
Perplex: Get vertical in Sydney as you
fight to dominate this five-story modular apartment complex. Take the high
ground or blast through the close-quarters interior in this small to medium
sized map. Adapt your strategy mid-match when construction drones shift
apartment modules, creating new routes and cover positions.
Site 244: A spacecraft has crash landed,
spilling its mysterious cargo under the shadow of Mt. Rushmore, USA. This
medium to large three-lane map allows for any style of gameplay, focusing
combat through the space ship's fuselage and around the debris-littered
landscape. Use the map-based scorestreak to crack open an alien spore and
instantly enhance your perks and exo abilities.
Climate: Fight your way through a
futuristic man-made utopia in this lush, climate-controlled enclosure. In
this small to medium sized circular map, land and water routes channel
frenetic combat around the central island structure. Watch your step when
the river water changes from an asset into a deadly bubbling obstacle.
Chop Shop: Think fast as you make your way
through the black market exoskeleton industrial complex and engage in
fast-paced shootouts in this medium sized, symmetrical map. Activate the
map-based scorestreak to take control of an Advanced Repulsion Turret that
radiates a deadly microwave EMP to help lock down key areas.
The exo zombies saga continues in the all-new episode, Infection, as the four
Atlas employees, portrayed by the returning celebrity cast of John Malkovich (In
the Line of Fire, RED, Burn After Reading), Bill Paxton (Aliens, Titanic, Edge
of Tomorrow), Rose McGowan (Planet Terror, Scream), and Jon Bernthal (Fury, The
Wolf of Wall Street) fight tooth and nail through undead zombie hordes. Located
on the outskirts of an Atlas facility, the new exo zombies episode introduces a
slew of never-before-seen undead masses, a robust arsenal of new traps and
armaments and everyone's favorite fast food joint, Burgertown.
