Call of Duty®: Advanced Warfare Havoc, the first
DLC pack of the top-selling console video game in the world in
2014, based on physical game unit sell-through data from NPD and
Gfk, is available now, first on the Xbox Live online entertainment
network from Microsoft for Xbox One and Xbox 360. Delivering a new
level of DLC value, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
Havoc includes four new, epic multiplayer maps, access to
the versatile AE4 directed energy assault rifle, the AE4 Widowmaker
custom variant, plus an exciting all-new zombies cooperative mode
called Exo Zombies.
Havoc’s four new, exotic and diverse multiplayer maps are
set around the globe and are tailor-made for players to unleash
their exoskeleton’s abilities:
- Core: Deploy to the Gobi desert where the
ravaged ruins of a nuclear fusion plant set the stage for a
high-octane warzone. Take down enemies through the wreckage in
long-range combat or get up-close and personal in the tunnels
surrounding the central turbine. Activate decontamination drones
using the map-based scorestreak to help clean out the
competition.
- Urban: Prepare yourself for brutal,
high-speed combat in Dallas Ward 3, a future mega structure,
funneling players into a close-quarters free-for-all. This modular
compound’s verticality unleashes the exoskeleton’s capabilities.
Stay focused during the timed event as blast doors alter the map’s
flow and sightlines.
- Sideshow: In the shadow of Devil’s Tower,
Wyoming, this abandoned inn’s open layout amplifies its creep
factor. Blast your way through the clown inn with close-quarters
battles or use long-range site-lines from the mining facilities and
natural terrain. Use the map-based scorestreak to activate the
lights, music, and magic of the clown marquee and rain down a
barrage of rainbow smoke-trailed cannonballs.
- Drift: An idyllic ski resort high in the
Rocky Mountains is transformed into a festive high-altitude
playground, perfect for an all-out firefight. Make your way to the
highly contested over watch in the glass observation deck or take a
ride on the carousel to deliver 360 degrees of carnage. Players can
use the map-altering timed event to their advantage as an avalanche
of snow and debris disorients players, intensifying the
battle.
Havoc includes a new cooperative experience, Exo Zombies.
Featuring a story told through the eyes of four employees of the
Atlas corporation and played by a celebrity cast consisting of John
Malkovich (In the Line of Fire, RED, Burn After Reading), Bill
Paxton (Aliens, Titanic, Edge of Tomorrow), Rose McGowan (Planet
Terror, Scream), and Jon Bernthal (Fury, The Wolf of Wall Street),
Exo Zombies ushers in a new breed of zombies and a truly unique
experience, all included first in the Havoc DLC Pack. The
actors provide their voice over and likeness in a dark and
cinematic adventure new to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.
These four performers help enlist players into a world where a DNA
bioweapon unexpectedly spawns a bloodthirsty, ravenous mutant horde
infecting a secret Atlas research facility and sending personnel
running for their lives. Following a failed evacuation, four
survivors, un-trained and underprepared, must face the most
vicious mutations ever unleashed.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Havoc is available now,
first, exclusively on Xbox Live for Xbox One, the all-in-one games
and entertainment system from Microsoft and Xbox 360 games and
entertainment system from Microsoft for a suggested retail price of
