DLC Content


What can you share about the new competitive multiplayer maps?
The four new maps featured in Awakening inject new variety in the Black Ops 3 multiplayer experience that will challenge and delight players of all levels.

  • Gauntlet delivers three unique environments within one action-packed map. Showcasing Treyarch’s classic three-lane map structure, the map transports players into battle through a sprawling jungle, sub-zero arctic zone, and rainy urban cityscape.
  • Splash is set in an abandoned water park that includes dynamic environmental features such as waterslides, a wrecked pirate ship, and a lazy river. This map encourages an open flow of combat and allows for plenty of opportunities for underwater gameplay.
  • Rise is set in the snowy outskirts of Zurich, smack-dab in the middle of a construction site for a massive subterranean Coalescence research campus. This larger map features multiple engagement areas, with each section catering to different play styles.
  • Skyjacked soars high above urban Zurich in a re-imagined, modernized take on the popular Black Ops II multiplayer map Hijacked. Thanks to the new core movement system featured in Black Ops III, this map gives players new ways to explore the environment while retaining the fast and frenetic gameplay that made Hijacked a fan favorite.

What can you share about Awakening‘s new Zombies experience?
Black Ops 3‘s Zombies DLC adventure begins with Der Eisendrache (“The Iron Dragon”). Set in a chilling medieval Austrian castle during World War II, Der Eisendrache picks up where The Giant left off and continues to follow the classic cast of characters: Richtofen, Nikolai, Takeo and Dempsey. The ancient site on which the castle sits was the scene of unspeakable horror where massive deposits of Element 115 have recently been discovered.

Will Der Eisendrache introduce any new weapons or gameplay mechanics?
There will be elements of low-gravity, an ancient bow that can be upgraded through mystical quests and new ways to transport yourself around the map.
