The third DLC pack
for Call of Duty: Black Ops III, Descent, is now available on PlayStation 4,
Xbox One and PC, transporting players to four new multiplayer maps that span the
globe and an all-new Zombies experience, Gorod Krovi.
In the newest, twisted chapter of the Origins Zombies experience, Gorod Krovi
takes players to an alternate-timeline of Stalingrad in which they must 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.
Call of Duty: Black Ops III Descent includes four new multiplayer maps set 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 is now available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC at a discounted
rate via the Call of Duty: Black Ops III DLC Season Pass**, which features four
DLC Map Packs planned for the year, as part of the discounted bundle offered at
a suggested retail price of $49.99.
