Call of Duty Black Ops 3, the third installment to the Black Ops franchise. How can it possibly be any better than Black Ops 2? Well, it is. Due to all the hype from fans, many fans were satisfied with their purchase of the game.

There were first 2 modes from the very first game Call of Duty World at War, which then turned into 3, when the COD Black Ops series were created. Thanks to Treyarch, the creators of the games, they’ve been able to keep us satisfied and have been impressing us with the games. One game mode is campaign, which now they’ve added online campaign, supporting up to 4 players in a cooperative adventure. Another gamemode is multiplayer, in which they have added freerun, a new way to slide, run on walls, and swim and shoot under water. Finally, zombies: with a new map called Shadows of Evil, they have gotten really creative with the zombies, overtime. They have added these gumballs that aid you and swords that help fight the living dead.

The campaign will keep your heart racing and your fingers constantly moving, especially if you’re playing on the realistic difficulty; one shot and you are dead. Fans struggle with the realistic mode and hope to beat it soon. It’ll be a huge accomplishment to them.

The new and improved multiplayer has been shocking to most fans due to all the new improvements that has changed such as wall running, the new slide, fighting underwater, that little extra boost in the air, and the all new freerun mode. Freerun is a practice training speed-run level; there are 4 levels in total which each are harder as you increase. Fans love the new improvements made to the multiplayer.

The zombies are still here, an all new zombies map which takes place in Morg City, in which there are 4 never before seen characters. You have to complete rituals and turn into a beast to do so. Fans also love the new additions made to this brand new zombies map, but that’s not all. Another zombies map is available with the season pass called “The Giant”, which brings back some old classic characters to continue fighting the living dead.

There are 4 different editions of the game, such as the standard edition which includes just the disc, the digital deluxe edition which includes: 2 extra skins, a season pass, a new zombie map “The Giant”, and the disc, the hardened edition which includes: a soundtrack download, the new zombie map “The Giant”, cards, 2 skins, a steelbook, and the disc, and last but not least the Juggernog edition which includes: everything from the hardened edition, but with coasters and a Juggernog mini-fridge.
Overall the game is amazing and is guaranteed to keep you smiling, especially if Treyarch is keeping us busy with four new map packs coming out soon.
