Sorry, PC gamers and those outside North America-you'll still need to buy all your own DLC. This is described as a "limited time offer," but there's no word on when it'll end. They'll be available on store shelves "at all major retailers" across North America from today. Fortunately for would-be new players, this is being redressed a little with a new offer.Ī download token for the first map pack, First Strike, will be included for free in specially-marked Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 editions of Cod Blops, publisher Activision has announced. No $50 season pass has been announced for PS3, Wii U or PC yet, but Activision notes that “season pass and DLC map packs may not be available on all gaming platforms.” Call of Duty: Black Ops II will be available for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, and PC.With today's launch of the third Call of Duty: Black Ops multiplayer map pack, Annihilation, it now costs almost as much to buy all of the downloadable content as it does to buy the game itself. The new Elite services will launch concurrently with Black Ops II next month. Those 2.3 million subscribers will automatically transfer to the new free service when their subscriptions for Modern Warfare 3 run out. Each map pack by themselves normally cost $15 each, but season pass holders will be able to grab them all for $50, saving a total of $10.Īs of August, Call of Duty Elite had 12 million subscribers, and 2.3 million of them were premium subscribers. This will give gamers access to four map packs throughout 2013.
It seems that early access to DLC is no longer available in Elite, but Activision is giving Xbox 360 gamers the ability to purchase a “season pass” for $50 (or 4,000 Microsoft Points). All of this will become free to all subscribers of Call of Duty Elite who buy Black Ops II. For $50/year, Elite subscribers had all of the basic features of the free subscription, but also had access to certain challenges and competitions, increased video storage space, and guaranteed early access to DLC map packs.
