Salvation Delivers the Culmination of the
Timeless Treyarch Zombies Experience That’s Been Eight Years in the
Making, Plus Four Action-Packed Multiplayer Maps
Salvation DLC Map Pack PS4 Pre-Orders Include
Exclusive Zombies Dynamic Theme
Salvation, the fourth DLC pack for Call of Duty®:
Black Ops III, the best-selling console video game on next
generation platforms*, will arrive first on PlayStation 4 on
September 6, with other next-gen platforms to follow**. Published
by Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Activision Blizzard, Inc. [Nasdaq: ATVI] and developed by Treyarch,
Salvation, delivers the reality-altering finale of the
Origins Zombies adventure, and four action-packed multiplayer
environments for fans.
“Without a doubt, this is the most epic season of DLC that we’ve
ever created for fans of Multiplayer and Zombies,” said Mark Lamia,
Studio Head, Treyarch. “At this point it goes without saying, that
Zombies has been a true labor of love for the studio, and I’m proud
to say that this will be a defining and epic experience for the
fans who have joined us over the last 8 years.”
Salvation features Revelations, the long-awaited final
chapter in the Origins Zombies saga. In Revelations, we meet up
with the Origins characters after they’ve taken an epic journey
through space and time – all of their struggles lead to this very
moment. In this, the final chapter of the Zombies experience,
Richtofen, Dempsey, Takeo, and Nikolai finally come face to face
with the mysterious Doctor Monty in The House. Confronted by an
ancient evil, our heroes must fight the zombie horde once more in
the final battle to save their immortal souls.
“With the release of Zombies as an Easter Egg in 2008’s Call of
Duty®: World at War, Treyarch set forth on a journey – or, really a
conversation – with fans, and Revelations is the final punctuation
mark,” said Jason Blundell, Director of Zombies, Treyarch. “The
secrets we laid out years ago will finally make sense – we’ve been
waiting a long time for this.”
Call of Duty: Black Ops III Salvation is also loaded with
four new action-packed multiplayer maps that jettison players from
the ancient walls of a medieval fortress to the deceptively quaint
setting of a backyard picnic.
- Citadel: Once home to a powerful medieval
army, this ancient castle now sits broken and abandoned. Tight
corners force close-quarters engagements, while the moat and
drawbridge allows for unique player movement opportunities in this
mid-sized map. The last trespassers didn’t make it out alive –
maybe you’ll have a better shot.
- Micro: What’s better than a BBQ on a hot
summer day? A miniaturized war zone that takes place on a
well-stocked family picnic table, that’s what! Navigate this
bite-size battlefield for a larger-than-life experience.
- Outlaw: Gear up for a showdown in Outlaw; a
western-style re-imagining of the fan favorite map Standoff from
Call of Duty®: Black Ops II. This rough-and-tough medium-sized map
brings classic engagements, flanking routes and strategic positions
for long and medium ranged combat.
- Rupture: The Call of Duty®: World at War
classic Outskirts is re-imagined as a high-tech facility, designed
by a futuristic society desperate to repair the Earth’s
atmosphere.
