Treyarch elevates the Call of Duty social gaming experience by delivering a campaign that is designed for four-player co-op and re-playability. Players encounter all the epic cinematic gameplay moments that Call of Duty is known for, as well as new open-area arena-style gameplay elements designed to allow players to approach the game with a different strategy each time they play.

And now, every player is completely customizable: from weapons and loadouts, to abilities and outfits, all with full progression systems and a personalized armory to show off accomplishments, providing a constantly-evolving campaign experience.

The Winslow Accord leads the Black Ops faction of robotic humanoids and cyborg supersoldiers. 

Call of Duty®: Black Ops III Multiplayer introduces the new Specialist Character System, which allows players to choose from a number of elite Black Operations soldiers - each with their own look, personality, and voice - and then rank them up and master each of their battle-hardened weapons and special abilities. With this addition to Global and Weapons XP Progressions Systems, Black Ops 3 Multiplayer gives players three different ways to rank up.

Call of Duty®: Black Ops III features a new chain-based fluid movement system, allowing players to move through the environment with finesse, using controlled thrust jumps, power slides, wall-running, swimming, and fast mantling capabilities in a multitude of combinations - all with complete control over their weapon and character. Utilizing Treyarch's signature guns up philosophy, players maintain full control of their weapon at all times and have 360-degrees of motion through all maneuvers. 

Maps are designed from the ground-up for the new movement system, giving players a feeling of power over how they use the environment for advanced tactics, while at the same time pushing strong head-to-head engagements for classic Black Ops boots-on-the-ground action.

Treyarch is taking weapon modification to a whole new level. With the new Gunsmith System, any weapon can be tailored to your preference with multiple models for each attachment, distinctive camos, and custom emblems. Multiple attachments and an optic can be added to weapons, giving you the opportunity to build out the ultimate weapon for battle. And on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, the new Weapon Paint Shop feature goes beyond the standard emblem editor and lets you create custom graphics that are displayed on the sides of your guns. With up to 64 layers and three sides to design, you'll be able to create your own signature weapon variants with a practically infinite number of possible combinations.

Set in a fictional 1940s city, Shadows of Evil is a film-noir-inspired horror story centered around four particularly troubled individuals – The Femme Fatale, The Magician, The Cop and The Boxer – and spans an entire Metropolis swathed in evil… Welcome to Morg City.

Each of the four characters awaken to a nightmarish world overrun by the undead. Each character fights to overcome confusion and amnesia – in the hope that they may piece together the events that brought them to this twisted world.

Morg City is the ideal backdrop for a noir horror story, featuring a theater district, jazz clubs and a suspension railway – elements that add new depth and complexity as you fend off the undead.

Shadows of Evil introduces players to The Femme Fatal, The Magician, The Cop and The Boxer – and these are not nice people. Every one of them is a lying, conniving, manipulative and selfish individual with a long sordid history of past misdeeds.

• Femme Fatal - she belongs in motion pictures, but instead works as a burlesque dancer at the city's most "upscale" nightclub - where she inevitably attracts the attention of many powerful men, manipulating their weaknesses and desires for her own ends.
• The Magician - born into enormous wealth, The Magician grew up surrounded by lackeys and sycophants... and a lifetime of constant praise and attention has only fueled his deeply misplaced arrogance.
• The Cop - after years of taking mob bribes and framing innocent men, The Cop is a likely suspect in a department-wide corruption investigation... The timing of which couldn't be worse.
• The Boxer - besides removing the padding from his gloves, The Boxer wore a pair of brass knuckles hidden beneath his hand wraps - he wasn't just looking to win, he was looking to cause damage.

Personalize your Zombies experience with a full XP-based Progression System that adds depth and re-playability that fans have come to expect.
