Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 - Xbox One

Call of Duty: Black Ops III is a first-person shooter developed by Treyarch and published by Activision. Released on November 6, 2015, it serves as the twelfth installment in the Call of Duty series and a direct sequel to Black Ops II. The game is set in a dystopian future in 2065, where advanced military technology has blurred the lines between humanity and robotics. Players assume the role of a Black Ops soldier, navigating a world facing climate change and new global conflicts.

The game offers three distinct modes: Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies. The Campaign mode is designed for both solo play and cooperative gameplay, supporting up to four players online. This mode introduces a more open level design, allowing for multiple approaches to completing objectives. Players can customize their character's abilities and loadouts, tailoring their experience to their playstyle.

Multiplayer mode introduces a new movement system, utilizing thruster packs that enable players to perform controlled jumps, slides, and wall runs. The 'Specialist' system is also introduced, allowing players to choose from nine different soldiers, each with unique abilities and weapons. This adds a strategic layer to the gameplay, as players must select a Specialist that complements their team's composition.

The Zombies mode features an all-new narrative separate from the main campaign. It offers a full XP-based progression system, providing depth and replayability. Players face hordes of the undead in various settings, uncovering the story through exploration and survival.

Black Ops III received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its depth of content and engaging multiplayer. However, some criticism was directed at the game's narrative and lack of innovation in certain areas. Despite this, it was lauded for its ambitious scope and the variety of gameplay options available to players.
