Activision have announced that the next map pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, Eclipse, will include a remake of the hugely popular World at War map, Banzai.
The Eclipse map pack will feature four new maps as well as bringing in the next chapter for Call of Duty zombies. The four new maps are called Spire, Rift, Knockout and Verge. Verge is the remake of the Call of Duty: World at War map, Banzai and will swap World War Two for a post-apocalyptic future setting featuring bridges, fortresses, tunnel systems and even waterfalls.
Check out details of each map below:
Spire: Spire takes multiplayer combat to a futuristic sub-orbital airport terminal set high in the clouds. Multiple levels and open areas promote intense, mid-range combat around a clean, high-tech civilian environment. Watch your step, because one wrong move could send you plummeting back through the stratosphere.
Rift: Head to the core of a harsh futuristic military complex, set high above an active caldera. Rift funnels and forces tight, intense engagements, where the only way through is forward. Utilise the unique core movement opportunities to outsmart and outplay enemies as you traverse the suspended rail system.
Knockout: Housed in a traditional Shaolin Temple with a retro twist, Knockout sets the stage for a bloody Kung Fu tournament. This mid-sized map showcases a sharp contrast between the mid-range engagements of the traditional exterior architecture and the tight close-quarters of an eclectic 1970’s styled interior.
Verge: In this re-imagination of the classic Call of Duty: World at War map, Banzai, Verge drops multiplayer combat into the centre of a distant post-apocalyptic future, where two warring factions are entrenched in constant battle. Take control of the key bridge, fortresses, tunnel systems and waterfalls as you engage in high-speed action through this medium-sized map.
Zetsubou No Shima is the title of the next chapter for zombies and takes place on a remote pacific island which is home to the Division 9 biological research lab where there have been an outbreak of zombies.
“Zetsubou No Shima features a foliage-rich island map including new terrifying zombie enemies, a variety of innovative transport mechanics, more devastating traps and classic Zombies side quests,” state Activision.
The Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Eclipse map pack will be coming to PlayStation 4 first on April 19th with Xbox One and PC gamers getting the map pack not long after. PS3 and Xbox 360 gamers will not be able to grab Eclipse however for the last-gen consoles.
