Black Ops 3 DLC 2 ‘Eclipse’ hits PS4 on April 19

Activision has revealed the first details on Call of Duty’s second DLC pack, Eclipse.

Available first on PS4 from April 19, Eclipse includes four brand new multiplayer maps – Spire, Rift, Knockout and Verge – and an “all-new Zombies experience” set in World War 2’s Pacific theatre.

One of the maps, Verge, is actually a remake of Call of Duty: World at War map ‘Banzai’, too, switching the WW2 setting for a post-apocalyptic skirmish in the distant future. You can check out details on all four maps below:

• 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: 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. Utilise the unique core movement opportunities to outsmart and outplay enemies as you traverse the suspended rail system.
• Knockout: Housed in a traditional Shaolin Temple with a retro twist, Knockout sets the stage for a bloody 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.
• Verge: In this re-imagination of the classic Call of Duty: World at War map, Banzai, Verge drops Multiplayer combat into the centre of a distant post-apocalyptic future, where two warring factions are entrenched in constant battle. Take control of the key bridge, fortresses, tunnel systems and waterfalls as you engage in high-speed action through this medium-sized map.

The new Zombies map, meanwhile, called ‘Zetsubou No Shima’, sees players stranded on a Pacific island home to a secret biological research lab where, you guessed it, there’s been a zombie outbreak. “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,” says Activision.

Eclipse will be available first on PS4, with a release on Xbox One and PC to follow at a later date. The DLC will not be available on Xbox 360 or PS3.
