Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 expands the possibilities of Call of Duty Multiplayer. The new movement system allows players to fluidly chain movements together while playing in maps that have been designed from the ground-up to push strong head-to-head action. Choose to play as one of nine new Specialists, each with their own look, personality, abilities, and level progression system. Finally, equip up to five attachments and an optic while customizing nearly every aspect of your loadout with the new Gunsmith, then tap the power of the Weapon Paintshop to give your weapon a signature look.
(PS3 and Xbox 360 platform version features and performance may vary compared to other platform versions.)

In the weeks ahead, Treyarch will share more details about the beta’s launch, the included maps and modes, and more, so keep an eye out for details.
