A new trailer for Call of Duty: Ghosts showcases its second multiplayer expansion called Devastation and confirms a guest appearance from the Predator, the trophy hunting Yautja first introduced in 1987 film Predator. More and video after the break.
The video also offers players a brief look at the four new multiplayer maps rolling out with Devastation: Behemoth, set in a South American excavation site; Collision exists on a container ship; Ruins; and, Unearthed, a call-back to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's Dome map. Devastation also includes the second episode in the ongoing story seen in Ghosts' Extinction mode. Titled Mayday, the new story will take players to a Chinese research vessel stranded on the Tasman sea. There players will have to work cooperatively to uncover the ship's secrets while battling waves of Cryptid monsters, including a few new Cryptid enemy types. Devastation will also bring the new Ripper weapon to Ghosts multiplayer. The weapon is a combination SMG/assault rifle that can switch between its two firing modes on-the-fly, enabling players to use one weapon for both close-up combat and ranged firefights. The new trailer shows off stylized gameplay on each of the new maps and previews how the Ripper might be used during combat. The second episode of Extinction mode is also shown, including a glimpse of the 100-foot tall Kraken Cryptid. The ending of the video even includes a special surprise involving a certain 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.
The expansion is part of the $49.99 season pass, while non-season pass holders can purchase it separately for $14.99. Devastation will launch April 3 on Xbox 360 and Xbox One as an exclusive to the consoles for an unspecified period of time.
