Black Ops 3 Awakening brings new maps and Zombies to Xbox One on March 3
Sleepyhead Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 players on Xbox One and PC will get an Awakening on March 3, Activision has confirmed. Awakening introduces three all-new competitive multiplayer maps: abandoned water park Splash, biome-trotting Gauntlet, and towering construction site Rise. It also includes Skyjacked, a reworked floating fortress version of Black Ops 2's Hijacked.
If you prefer to shoot hordes of rotten-brained soldiers who don't leave their mics on while listening to awful music, Awakening also packs in the first-all new Zombies co-op campaign chapter in years: Der Eisendrache. Tank Dempsey and the rest of the gang are back to their old world-saving exploits, this time while laying siege to an occult research facility built in a freaky Austrian castle. Also there's a dragon.
The Awakening will be available on its own for $15, though the $49.99 Black Ops 3 Season Pass is set to receive three more map packs throughout the year.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
