14 DAY TRIAL // After a leak over the weekend, Call of Duty: Ghosts has seen its first downloadable map pack, Onslaught, confirmed with a full batch of details as well as a gameplay video that depict all the new levels.
Call of Duty: Ghosts impressed gamers worldwide in November and now, after several downloadable items, the first full-fledged map pack will be released at the end of the month, in the form of the Onslaught DLC.
Four competitive multiplayer modes are included in the DLC, alongside a new scenario for the Extinction co-op experience and a new weapon called the Maverick.
Check out the full details below, via an official statement from Activision.
Fog - a small to medium sized map set alongside the banks of a murky lake. Every area within Fog is a chilling homage to classic horror films, from an eerie campsite, flickering TVs, torture chamber, and seemingly abandoned structures as players try to unlock the map's dark secret. If a player happens to find and complete a specific Field Order, they become the embodiment of evil and don the persona of one of cinema's most iconic horror characters, Michael Myers. Additionally, the entire soundscape changes to the eerily familiar Halloween Theme music so other players know to run for their lives.
BayView - a close-quarters map set on a coastal Californian boardwalk packed with seaside gift stores and an aquarium, offering players fast-paced run-and-gun matches. Players must also be wary of the deadly artillery strike enemies can call-in from a Naval Destroyer anchored just offshore.
Containment - transports players to a war-torn Mexican village, where the battle rages along both banks of the dried out riverbed. The action in this compact map centers on the remains of a small bridge holding a hi-jacked truck filled with leaking radioactive material. Surrounded by a myriad of abandoned bars, cafes, a church and a pool hall, Containment also features elevated rooftop vantage points for players who prefer longer-range engagements.
Ignition - launches players into an aging Florida space launch facility. Inspired by Scrapyard - the fan-favorite multiplayer map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, reimagined with dynamic gameplay elements - Ignition packs plenty of action both above and below ground amongst abandoned warehouses, flame trenches, and a massive transport crawler. As if rockets crash-landing into the map weren't enough, the close-quarters combat is further complicated via two separate rocket test engines sites that opposing forces can trigger, sending massive fireballs into the already intense firefights, and the failed launch of a massive rocket has a dramatic effect on the combat.
Extinction Episode 1: Nightfall - Introducing a narrative driven by two new characters, and featuring two all-new alien species and an exclusive weapon, Episode 1: Nightfall is a fast and frenetic, action-packed continuation of the original Extinction experience in Call of Duty: Ghosts. Set in a remote facility hidden deep within the Alaskan wilderness, the shadowy Nightfall Program has been researching the origins of the newly revealed alien threat. A small recon team of elite soldiers must infiltrate the site to retrieve intel and exterminate the hordes of savage creatures, and along the way uncover a three-story tall terror unlike anything they've faced before.
Call of Duty: Ghosts will receive its first DLC on January 28 on the Xbox One and Xbox 360, as part of Microsoft's timed exclusivity deal.
Until then, check out a video of the add-on in action below.
