After the undead Exo-based antics of Advanced Warfare, and the more recent Cthulhu-inspired 'Shadows of Evil', it feels like the zombies mode has gone back to its Nazi roots with 'Der Eisendrache'. This, combined with the four new multiplayer maps, ensure that Awakening is a solid first entry to Treyarch's planned content that should keep the armchair...
So that's it! you'll get 4 great maps and while I definitely have my preference I can honestly say I'm never disappointed with which map is picked in the rotation. They are all good in their own way, just like the kid at school who licked the chalkboard when no one was looking.
Call of Duty: Black Ops III's season of content kicks off with a solid start.
I used to consider the zombies mode an afterthought. Something I'd tackle when I am bored or just tired of getting slaughtered online. Now; however, it is almost my immediate go to mode.
