Activision has revealed the new Modern Warfare 3’s new open-world Zombies mode which makes its debut this November. Treyarch, the Zombies creator and Black Ops studio, is leading the development of the project which encourages players to team up to take down hordes of zombies. Zombies mode is making its very first appearance for the Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare sub-series.
The cinematic reveal trailer for the new mode showcases the open-world experience as players struggle to survive against endless swarms of zombies. Activision commented on its cinematic reveal trailer in a blog post that said, “Prepare to face off against a greater quantity of undead than ever before as the members of Operation Deadbolt embark on difficult and multi-stage tasks as Soap and company attempt to stop Zakhaev and Terminus from plundering more resources, all while attempting to contain the current threat before it spreads out of control.”
Additionally, when asked about the implementation of a never-before-seen open-world mode into Zombies, Activision responded by saying, “Combining the very best of Modern Warfare map features and systems with the tried-and-true core features of Treyarch Zombies, Modern Warfare Zombies presents an all-new twist on the fan-favorite third game mode, launching alongside the Campaign and Multiplayer when Modern Warfare III releases.” Activision was also quoted in saying, “Get ready to contain the incursion across different regions that escalate in difficulty, with core Zombies features and a cavalcade of secrets to discover. Ready up for an open-world, player-versus-environment (PvE) extraction survival experience shared with other squads, along with a number of special story missions. Expect to face a variety of unique elements, challenges, as well as cinematics to reinforce the major story developments.”
