Call of Duty: Black Ops III - PC

Call of Duty is going back to the future with Black Ops III.

The single-player campaign takes you to a future where bio-technology and cybernetic enhancements have combined to create a new breed of Black Ops soldier. They're hardwired into the intelligence grid and their fellow soldiers through Direct Neural Interface (DNI) technology, making for elite warriors who are built to be smarter, stronger and faster.

On the multiplayer front, developer Treyarch has created a new momentum-based, chain movement system that prioritises allowing players to move quickly and fluidly through their environment. The game also introduces the new Specialist system, which enables players to choose and rank up nine soldiers, each with their own look, attitude and set of weapons and abilities. Adding to all that is a brand new weapon customisation system that enables players to dig deep and create their perfect weapon.

And, of course, there is an all-new Zombies mode. Treyarch says it's the most ambitious Zombies mode to date, and now it comes with its own XP progression system, meaning there's more depth on display than ever before. One Zombies story, Shadows of Evil, focuses on a new group of characters (with a very distinguished voice cast), Nero (Jeff Goldblum), Jessica (Heather Graham), Jack Vincent (Neal McDonough) and Floyd Campbell (Ron Perlman), a twisted bunch thrown into the zombie-ridden city of Morg in a tale that ties in to past Zombies stories. The second, The Giant, features alternate versions of the original characters, Tank Dempsey (Steven Blum), Nikolai Belinski (Fred Tatasciore), Takeo Masaki (Tom Kane) and Edward Richtofen (Nolan North), picking up where 'Origins' left off.
