First Strike, Escalation, Annihilation, and now Resurrection. The latest
Activision earnings release names the new Call of Duty: Black Ops DLC,
and provides a release window of sometime this fiscal quarter (which
means July through September). It would be ironically poorly timed, but
great for promotional purposes, if the DLC were to hit (on Xbox 360
first, as per exclusivity agreements) during the September 2-3 Call of
Duty XP event.
Hey, the first initials of each of those spell out "FEAR"! Or "FSEAR,"
but ... no, we're going with "FEAR."
Update: Activision detailed the DLC in a press release. The bad news:
it's actually called "Rezurrection." The good news: it's launching
August 23 on Xbox Live, and includes four "re-mastered levels of Zombie
lore: Nacht der Untoten, Verruckt, Shi No Numa and Der Riese, the Zombie
factory that started it all," along with a brand new "Moon" level. It
also includes an "enhanced Zombies Soundtrack" and a new Zombies Moon
theme. Yes, by the way, this is really about fighting zombies on the
moon.
The four "remastered" maps were previously included with the Hardened
and Prestige releases -- if you already have one of those, the rest of
this content will be free. Otherwise, it's the standard 1200 MS
Points/$15. It'll be easy to acquire, too, according to One of Swords: "
the short version is you'll be able to go into your Download History
and re-download the classic pack you already own, and the fresh download
will include the new Moon map. And you'll also get the soundtrack and
theme, too."
