Ghosts’ Fourth DLC Pack Delivers the Last Four
New Multiplayer Maps Plus the Epic Conclusion to the Game’s
Extinction Saga, Where Mankind Makes Its Final Stand Against the
Cryptid Invasion
Nemesis – the Final DLC Pack for Call of Duty:
Ghosts – Arrives First, Exclusively to Xbox August 5th
Call of Duty®: Ghosts caps off an extraordinary season of
content with the release of the fourth and final DLC pack, Call
of Duty®: Ghosts Nemesis, coming first, exclusively to Xbox
platforms on August 5. Throughout this year’s DLC season, Call
of Duty: Ghosts has introduced several franchise firsts,
including new killstreaks featuring the galaxy's ultimate hunter,
the deadly Predator, and one of cinema’s most iconic horror
characters, Michael Myers, new weapons like the dual purpose
“Maverick” Assault Rifle/Sniper Rifle and the tactical 2-in-1
Ripper SMG/Assault Rifle, as well as an all new episodic saga for
Extinction.
“First off I want to thank every one of our fans. The dedication
of our players is overwhelming. The whole team at Infinity Ward is
really excited about the release of the Nemesis and we think
it’s a great way to close out what’s been a really fun DLC season,”
said Mark Rubin, Executive Producer at Infinity Ward. “DLC is a
great way to unleash creative new content that is often the direct
result of community feedback and interaction. So thank you again to
the millions of people who play Call of Duty: Ghosts every
day and keep the feedback coming!”
The DLC season closes out strongly with Call of Duty®:
Ghosts Nemesis, which introduces four new multiplayer
maps from the most varied locales, each with unique Field Orders
specific to the map, and includes the exhilarating conclusion of
Extinction’s four-part narrative with “Episode 4: Exodus,” where
players fight for mankind’s survival as the Cryptid invasion
reaches its deadly climax.
The four new small-to-medium multiplayer maps in Nemesis
are designed specifically for Call of Duty’s distinctive
fast-paced, gun-on-gun gameplay.
- “Goldrush” is set in an abandoned gold
mine in the Southwest United States, where an intricate network of
cavernous tunnels and perilous shafts create the ideal setting for
medium to long range combat; while two mine carts race along the
abandoned tracks offering players a fast way to traverse the map.
Players who complete the unique field order on Goldrush will
unleash a howling pack of wolves that will descend upon their
enemies.
- “Subzero” drops players into a frigid
Canadian submarine base that has been hastily evacuated, with
control room, submarine pen and research facilities all left eerily
empty. Built around the traditional three-lane design, this
medium-sized map harbors a mysterious terror that will decimate
your enemies upon completion of the map’s unique field order.
- In “Dynasty,” players are transported
to a lakeside Chinese village surrounded by picturesque mountains,
vivid gardens, and spectacular architecture – a serene environment
that is anything but Zen-like. Multiple pathways crisscross the
village in this medium map with a variety of elevation and numerous
back alleys that create flanking routes. The unique field order on
“Dynasty” allows players to call in an air strike of vertical
takeoff fighter jets, while one lingers behind to give you
unmatched air superiority.
- Nemesis cranks the frenetic
multiplayer action to unprecedented levels with the fourth
multiplayer map, “Showtime,” a sadistic reimagining of the smallest
map in Call of Duty® history, the fan favorite map from Call of
Duty® 4: Modern Warfare® “Shipment.” In the futuristic arena of
“Showtime,” blind corners and narrow pathways provide momentary
reprieve from the outright mayhem within the central square
comprised of several shipping containers. Tight confines call for
shotguns and SMGs. Survive long enough to be rewarded with one of
three killstreaks: lethal automated gun turrets at key locations on
the map, an air drop with multiple care packages or a deadly gas
attack that forces the action back into the center of the
arena.
Closing out the final DLC Pack for Call of Duty: Ghosts
is the dramatic conclusion in the Extinction narrative, “Episode 4:
Exodus.” Following the CIF Unit’s harrowing escape from the alien
underworld and the successful recovery of Dr. Cross and the cortex,
the team has flown in to fight off the Cryptid army’s siege of the
last bastion of human resistance. Your mission is to get key
personnel to safety by restoring power to the shuttle and launching
the shuttle to a low earth orbit space station.
“Episode 4: Exodus” gives players unprecedented control of their
escape route – choose your path, gather new intel, craft new
weapons – and introduces the deadliest of enemies with a range of
lethal powers, including mind control and psionic attacks – the
Ancestors. As the battle for our survival draws to a close, the
fate of mankind is in your hands.
