About this game

The developer's description, from the game's Steam store page.

Prepare for Ascendance, the second downloadable content pack for Call of Duty®: Advanced Warfare, including:

  • Exo Zombies: Infection – Part Two of the Exo Zombies co-op experience.
  • Four unique Multiplayer Maps enabling more exo-driven verticality.
  • Bonus Weapon: The OHM Directed Energy Hybrid LMG/Shotgun and the OHM Werewolf Custom Variant.
  • Plus the all-new Exo Grapple Playlist, delivering an even more dynamic multiplayer experience.

Multiplayer Maps

Perplex: Get vertical in Sydney as you fight to dominate this five-story modular apartment complex. Take the high ground or blast through the close quarters interior in this small to medium sized map. Adapt your strategy mid-match when construction drones shift apartment modules, creating new routes and cover positions.

Site 244: An alien spacecraft has crash landed, spilling its mysterious cargo under the shadow of Mt. Rushmore, USA. This medium to large three-lane map allows for any style of gameplay, focusing combat through the space ship’s fuselage and around the debris-littered landscape. Use the map-based scorestreak to crack open an alien spore and instantly enhance your perks and exoskeleton abilities.

Climate: Fight your way though a futuristic man-made utopia in this lush, climate-controlled biodome. In this small to medium sized circular map, land and water routes channel frenetic combat around the central island structure. Watch your step when the river water changes from an asset into a deadly bubbling obstacle.

Chop Shop: Think fast as you make your way through the black market exoskeleton industrial complex and engage in fast-paced shootouts in this medium sized, symmetrical map. Activate the map-based scorestreak to take control of an Advanced Repulsion Turret that radiates a deadly microwave EMP to help lock down key areas.

Exo Grapple Playlist: The unique grappling ability from campaign mode is now available to use in all the Ascendance DLC MP maps through the Exo Grapple Playlist. Activate your Exo Grapple Ability for a faster way to reach strategic vantage points or as a brutal secondary weapon to take down the competition.

Bonus Weapons

Ascendance DLC owners get access to the all-new bonus weapon: The OHM directed energy two-in-one LMG/Shotgun and its OHM Werewolf Custom Variant. Adjust the weapon on the fly to fit your strategy. Unleash a barrage of directed energy fire from a distance in LMG mode or get up close and personal in shotgun mode and deliver a concentrated blast of directed energy.

Exo Zombies

After being overrun at the Atlas research facility outbreak, our heroes awaken to find that the infection has spread and mutated the surrounding town. Before they can get any answers, they’ll have to fight their way out.

Exo Zombies Part Two: Infection introduces an expanded co-op map including a Burgertown franchise and all-new enemies like the giant Goliath Exo Zombies, Acid Drippers, and more. While the mutations have evolved, so has the technology. All-new traps and the Magnetron Microwave Gun will give our heroes a fighting chance, but just surviving doesn’t cut it anymore. In the new Civilian Extraction Mode, fellow survivors will need help escaping the growing horde.
