Ben-DutkaThe new Call of Duty lands on store shelves in November, but you're still having fun with Black Ops II , right?
If so, and you're not playing on the Xbox 360, you're looking forward to the fourth and final downloadable expansion pack, Apocalypse. Good news- Activision has dated this DLC for PS3 and PC gamers.
Apocalypse heads to the latter two platforms on September 26. The add-on boasts "four thrilling and diverse multiplayer maps, as well as Call of Duty: Black Ops II Origins ." If you're wondering, Origins is an all-new Zombie hunting experience that reunites players with the original heroes of World at War . The four maps are: Pod, a failed utopian community from the 70s, set on the side of a cliff in Taiwan; Frost, a snow-covered European city, Takeoff, a remote launch site in the middle of the Pacific Ocean; and Dig, which is "an adaptation of the fan-favorite Courtyard" from World at War . Archaeological dig sites in Afghanistan are ripe for battle!
What good timing. At about the time you're done enjoying Apocalypse, Call of Duty: Ghosts will be upon us (it's set for November 5).
