Activision and Treyarch announced today that "Apocalypse", the fourth and final DLC pack for Black Ops 2 that includes four new multiplayer maps and the all-new Zombies experience "Origins", will be available first on Xbox 360 August 27. Other platforms to follow.
The epic climax of Activision and Treyarch’s Call of Duty: Black Ops II Downloadable Content (DLC) Season Pass culminates with Apocalypse. Available first on the Xbox Live on August 27th, the game’s fourth and final DLC Pack delivers four thrilling, diverse multiplayer maps and the all-new wildly creative Zombies experience - “Origins”.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II Apocalypse delivers four diverse multiplayer maps:
Pod: A failed utopian community from the 70’s has left stacks of dilapidated residential pods nestled into an abandoned cliff side in Taiwan. Its residents long gone, the modernist compound now hosts frenetic combat as players must run atop the pods, as well as navigate their multi-tiered interiors for a strategic edge.
Frost: Fresh snow meets explosive gunpowder in this snow-capped European city, where the bridge over a frozen canal separates it into two sides, requiring players to employ multi-level traversal strategies to outsmart and ultimately outshoot their enemies.
Takeoff: Fans of “Stadium” from the original Call of Duty®: Black Ops First Strike DLC will find themselves at home on “Takeoff.” Marooned in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, this remote launch site is all about close-quarters combat, combining tight corners with open spaces for intense encounters.
Dig: An adaptation of the fan-favourite “Courtyard” from Call of Duty®: World at War, where two archaeological dig sites in Afghanistan become the perfect playground for combatants eager for hectic, unceasing confrontations. Treyarch, has retained the spirit of “Courtyard” with two major chokepoints, a wide open layout and raised platforms, but has provided fans with a fresh take on the multitude of paths.
In addition to the four maps, Apocalypse also reveals Origins, the most horrifying and imaginative Zombies experience to date. Players will be deployed to Dieselpunk-stylised World War I-era France where they will encounter the return of the four original heroes from the very first Zombies map, Tank, Nikolai, Takeo, and Rictofen, as well as hordes of zombies that have overrun trenches and fields, as well as the ruins of a mysterious and ancient location.
Vengeance, the third downloadable map pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops II, is available now, first on Xbox 360. Download the new Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 DLC Pack on Xbox Live and get four epic new MP maps along with the terrifying new Zombies adventure, Buried.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 - Vengeance is priced at 1,200 MS Points ($14.99) and includes four multiplayer maps: Rush, Detour, Cove and Uplink (a remake of Summit from the original Black Ops). Vengeance features a brand new Zombies mode dubbed "Buried". Check out the official preview trailer.
