Non Xbox gamers patiently waiting for the announcement of the Call of Duty Onslaught DLC release date will be pleased to know that their wait is now over and they can expect to enjoy the game on February 27th for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PC.
The Call of Duty Onslaught DLC release date was a month ago for Xbox 360 and Xbox One gamers and brings with it four new multiplayer maps, a new weapon, and a new episode for Extinction game mode for $14.99.
New Multiplayer Maps and Features
The new Call of Duty Onslaught pack includes the ability to turn into Michael Myers (of Halloween fame) in the “Fog” map, which is a horror-themed map filled with eerie elements and atmospheric effects. This unique feature adds a thrilling twist to the gameplay, allowing players to experience a horror movie-like scenario. Additionally, the pack includes three other maps: Bayview, Containment, and Ignition. Bayview is set in a coastal Californian town with a tram that moves around the map, providing dynamic cover and strategic opportunities. Containment is set in a war-torn Mexican village, featuring a radioactive payload in the center of the map that can be used to the player’s advantage. Ignition is a reimagined version of the fan-favorite map Scrapyard from Modern Warfare 2, set in a missile launch facility.
The Onslaught DLC also introduces the Maverick AR & Sniper Rifle, a versatile weapon that can be used as both an assault rifle and a sniper rifle, depending on the player’s preference. This dual-purpose weapon adds a new layer of strategy to the game, allowing players to adapt to different combat situations seamlessly.
Extinction Mode and Future DLC Packs
The first installment in an episodic Extinction mode campaign is also included in the Onslaught DLC. This new episode, titled “Nightfall,” introduces new characters, a new storyline, and new alien species to battle against. Set in a remote Alaskan facility, players must uncover the secrets behind the alien invasion and survive the onslaught of increasingly difficult waves of enemies. The Extinction mode has been praised for its cooperative gameplay and intense action, making it a favorite among fans of the series.
Other Call of Duty: Ghosts DLC packs confirmed by developer Infinity Ward are ‘Devastation’, ‘Invasion’, and ‘Nemesis’. Each of these packs promises to bring new content, including additional multiplayer maps, weapons, and Extinction mode episodes. A Call of Duty Ghosts season pass priced at £34.99 grants players access to all four DLC packs upon their release, offering a cost-effective way to enjoy all the new content.
The Devastation pack, for example, includes the “Ruins” map, set in a Mayan temple, and the “Behemoth” map, which takes place on a massive excavation platform. The Invasion pack features the “Pharaoh” map, set in an ancient Egyptian palace, and the “Departed” map, set during the Day of the Dead festival in a Mexican town. The Nemesis pack includes the “Goldrush” map, set in an abandoned gold mine, and the “Subzero” map, set in a frozen submarine base. Each of these packs adds unique environments and gameplay mechanics, keeping the game fresh and exciting for players.
