The Call of Duty: Ghosts Invasion DLC released a few weeks ago for the Xbox 360 and Xbox One, as always with Call of Duty DLC, it is an Xbox timed exclusive, so other format owners have to wait a short while longer.  But thankfully you’ll not have much longer to wait as Invasion now has a set release date for the other formats.

The Invasion DLC will release for the PS3, PS4 and PC on July 3rd.  It will cost £11.99 as an individual purchase and of course it will be available to Call of Duty: Ghosts season pass holders at no extra cost.

Below is a little information on the maps, along with trailers for each to remind us of what’s included in Invasion, which also features the classic Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 map; Favela.  Not to mention Invasion includes the third chapter to the Extinction saga with “Awakening”.

 

  • Departed: Set in a rural Mexican town during the Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration, players who complete the map’s Field Order will unlock the Death Mariachi Killstreak. Armed with dual-wielding pistols, the Death Mariachi settles scores, with each kill turning enemy players into another member of the band and a temporary squad mate.

 

  • Pharaoh: In the abandoned archaeological site of an ancient Egyptian palace, players will have to be on the lookout for collapsing monuments and urns full of flesh-eating scarabs, among other surprises in this multi-level map. Players who unlock this map’s Field Order will be handsomely rewarded by Anubis, the half jackal/half human protector of the dead.

 

  • Mutiny: A remote Caribbean island harbouring an eerie pirate hideout complete with abandoned trading posts and prison cells, where speed and stealth are a must as players navigate the narrow and intertwining pathways. Players that unlock “Mutiny’s” Field Order will find themselves escorted by two ethereal ghost pirates who will happily send enemy players down to Davey Jones’ locker on their behalf.

 

  • Favela: A refreshed version of the fan-favourite map from Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 2, this Brazilian shantytown has seen substantial change since its original release. Buildings once under construction are now complete, while others have crumbled into a state of disrepair. Players must avoid falling to their death as they traverse the map from one building to the next, avoiding enemy snipers taking advantage of the map’s long sightlines. Players who complete “Favela’s” Field Order can call in air support from a nearby Y-8 Gunship.

 

  • Anchoring the Call of Duty: Ghosts Invasion DLC Pack is the next instalment in the game’s Extinction mode episodic narrative, “Episode 3: Awakening.” In Awakening, the team descends into the perilous alien underworld to strike at the subterranean fortress of the Ancestors, the mysterious puppet-masters behind the Cryptid invasion. Armed with a range of new hi-tech weapons and equipment, the team must penetrate a series of defensive barriers to reach the Ark and unlock the secrets of the Ancestors’ psychic powers. As the final battle draws closer, the fate of Earth and the future of the human race hang in the balance.
