Revolution delivers an unparalleled amount of variety and content for all types of Call of Duty: Black Ops II players, featuring four all-new multiplayer maps set around the globe. "Downhill" is a snowy alpine chateau perfect for hectic close-quarters combat. "Mirage" is a sand-devastated luxury villa suited for all play styles, while "Hydro" is a massive hydroelectric dam in Pakistan lined with long-range vantage points perfect for sniping. And "Grind" is a skate park in Venice Beach, where players must adapt to the map’s unique ramps, bowls and curvatures as they try and take cover from enemy fire.
Zombies fans get a terrifying double-dose of undead action in Revolution. First,the new map, "Die Rise," drops players inside a maze of crumbling skyscrapers amidst a ravaged Chinese city, where all-new Wonder Weaponry will play a crucial role as they make a valiant stand against the impending zombie hoard. Additionally, Revolution‘s innovative new Zombies mode, "Turned," flips this new fan-favorite mode around, allowing players to become the undead and play as a zombie, offering an entirely new style of bragging rights.
Rounding out the wide breadth of new content in Revolution is the "Peacekeeper," a one-time offering of a new multiplayer weapon planned for Call of Duty: Black Ops IIDLC.
