Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare Multiplayer Details Revealed


A day before Gamescom, Activision and Xbox presented a multiplayer reveal event for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and it was an action packed near hour long event full of reveals.  There certainly was more then I had anticipated, which included details on the new modes, maps, Exoskeleton abilities, huge customisation options, multiplayer perks and of course seeing some epic multiplayer gameplay in action.

Not only that, but Activision and Sledgehammer Games revealed that those who pre-order the game will be granted the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Day Zero Edition, which will be released a day earlier than scheduled and will come with a host of exclusive DLC and perks.

There really was so much revealed at the multiplayer event, so the best way in which I can present this news to you is by breaking up all the details via the press release that I revealed in an email.  So below please find all the need to know details for the new multiplayer features for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.

But before you read up on all those details, checkout the multiplayer screenshots, as well as the Day Zero Edition box art below:


Details on Exoskeleton, New Weapons Class, Customisation, Create a Class and Weaponry:

Also, the much loved Pick 10 create-a-class is back with even more customisable options than before with Pick 13. Gamers can now choose their favourite scorestreaks, which are fully customisable and include them in their preferred class, raising the bar on personalisation from top to bottom.  The introduction of co-operative scorestreaks also allows friends to experience Call of Duty multiplayer together in a new way, as for the first time ever, two players can now join a scorestreak and work co-operatively.

Sledgehammer Games is also taking personalisation to the next level with Create-an-Operator, a new character system, which allows players to personalise their soldier however they want from heads, helmets, eyewear, shirts, vests, kits, gloves, pants, knee-guards, boots and even the exoskeleton itself.  Create-an-Operator is bolstered by a brand new reward system called Supply Drops.  The more someone plays, the more they earn.  Supply Drops can contain anything from custom weapons to unique character gear in different classes of rarity, all giving players multiplayer bragging rights.

In addition to showing off their Supply Drops gear in-game, the new Virtual Lobby lets players display their hard-earned challenge rewards and rare items, while waiting for the map to start.  Billions of possible combinations exist, allowing gamers to personalise nearly everything on their in-game operator from head to toe. Players can finally see what their friends and opponents are bringing to the match, as the Virtual Lobby is a quick and easy way to size up the competition and also plan your next move in create-an-operator.

With the all-new exoskeleton, players can boost jump, dodge, dash, slide, slam and more as the action goes vertical, while using future-tech, cutting-edge capabilities and a brand-new weapon class as part of nearly 350 custom weapons.  Offering a new reward system, including more than 1,000 in-game player rewards and nearly limitless customisation options that create more than 2 billion unique player combinations and more, the title offers the most in-depth, robust and advanced Call of Duty multiplayer experience ever on both next generation and current generation systems.
