Activision promises 'a few surprises' for CoD5 DLC

Will be 'off the beaten path', developer has discussed new co-op missions.

Call of Duty: World at War publisher Activision has promised "a few surprises" when it comes to post-launch DLC.

Speaking to VideoGamer.com Activision senior producer Noah Heller said that World at War DLC will be "off the beaten path" and confirmed that Treyarch has discussed the possibility of adding new campaign co-op missions.

He said: "We're not announcing anything specific yet but I will say we're going to support this game very aggressively. We're definitely looking at doing things other than traditional DLC. We're definitely looking at supporting it for a long time to come because we're really proud of it. There will be a few surprises... we're going to do a few things off the beaten path."

When asked if it was possible for Treyarch to add new co-op missions to World at War, due out on November 14, Heller replied: "One of the wonderful things about co-op is there's no such thing any more as here's the single-player game and it never gets touched again. I can't confirm anything we might do, but the idea of adding new online co-op missions is definitely something that's been discussed a lot. And if co-op proves to be very popular then I'm sure the demand will be very high for it."

While Heller couldn't offer a time frame for when the first batch of DLC will be available, he did promise that fans be pleased by the amount of post-launch support Treyarch is planning, saying: "We've people working on it right now, and believe me those are very tired people."
