Eclipse, the Highly-Anticipated Second DLC Pack
from Treyarch, Features Four Multiplayer Maps, Including the
Re-imagining of Call of Duty: World at War Classic, Banzai, and the
Next Thrilling Chapter in the Origins Zombies Storyline
Call of Duty®: Black Ops III Eclipse, the second DLC pack
for the No. 1 top-selling console video game of 2015, Call of
Duty®: Black Ops III, is now available on PlayStation 4 with
other next-gen platforms to follow*. PS4 gamers can jump right into
the action across four new multiplayer maps, as well as a new
Zombies experience, which takes players to an undead island during
the World War II Pacific Theater in a thrilling new chapter of the
Origins saga.
“We know that fans are playing the hell out of our current
selection of multiplayer and Zombies maps, which is why we have
been working so hard to deliver an epic new DLC offering with
Eclipse,” said Mark Lamia, Studio Head, Treyarch. ”Suit up…it’s
time to kick some ass again!”
Players can now dive into Eclipse’s four multiplayer
maps: Knockout, Spire, Rift; and Verge, a re-imagining of the Call
of Duty®: World at War classic, Banzai.
- Knockout: Housed in a traditional
Shaolin Temple with a retro twist, Knockout sets the stage for a
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.
- 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: Players can 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. Players must utilize the unique
core movement opportunities to outsmart and outplay enemies, as
they traverse the suspended rail system.
- Verge: In this re-imagination of the
classic Call of Duty: World at War map, Banzai, Verge drops
multiplayer combat into the center of a distant post-apocalyptic
future, where two warring factions are entrenched in constant
battle. Players must take control of the key bridge, fortresses,
tunnel systems and waterfalls as they engage in high-speed action
through this medium-sized map.
Eclipse also introduces the next highly-anticipated
Zombies experience: Zetsubou No Shima, the second stop in the
Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies storyline that spans the
four DLC Map Packs for Black Ops III this year. The popular Origins
characters continue on their mission to stop the zombie apocalypse.
Our heroes find themselves stranded on a remote Pacific island,
which is home to the Division 9 facility: a secret biological
research lab whose experiments with Element 115 and its effects on
human, animal, and plant biology has created horrors beyond belief.
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
that fans will gravitate to.
Eclipse is now available 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.
Individual purchase of DLC Map Packs is at a suggested retail price
of $15. Call of Duty: Black Ops III is rated M for Mature
