I haven't really been following the Blops3 Zombies scene lately. I guess this could just be a standalone collection of all of the Zombies maps + DLC?

Kill and reanimate me if old.

// Mod Edit:

UPDATE: A Polish retailer also appears to have posted (and now removed) another listing about the Zombies Chronicles for Black Ops 3, spotted by a Reddit User on r/CODZombies. The text on the Polish retailer site, as seen below in the image, translates too:

”Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Zombie Chronicles is the latest set that includes the original Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 gameplay complete with Zombie Chronicles – 8 original maps renewed for the next generation of Call of Duty."

Original:

Here's an interesting rumor...a Mexican retailer appears to have posted up a small listing in their store suggesting that a new DLC is coming to Black Ops 3 called ‘Zombies Chronicles.' The listing at the Spanish retailer suggests that a bundled Black Ops 3 game with this new Zombies Chronicles DLC is coming soon to PS4 and Xbox One (although the DLC itself will probably be available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC), with no confirmed release date as of now.

The rough translation suggests that the Zombies Chronicles DLC includes 8 remastered Call of Duty Treyarch Zombies maps, which have been updated to include the Gobblegum feature.

”It is a full suite which brings the original contents of Black Ops 3 and the content of Zombie Chronicles, includes 8 classic maps of Treyarch Zombies remastered and all the maps include the Gobblegum function."

[Syrus]

Sounds awesome

Heard this zombies sucked though

 

[13ruce]

Kino der Toten remaster and i can die happily.

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

is this the call of duty switch is getting?

 

[5amshift]

After the original Black Ops came out, I said they should just make a stand-alone zombies since that shit got popular fairly fast. Finally they're getting to it.

 

[RecRoulette]

is this the call of duty switch is getting?

This would make a lot of sense.

 

[Oregano]

is this the call of duty switch is getting?

Well it's not rated for Switch...

 

[Tregard]

What an odd release

 

[Triforce141]

If this means I can get the complete Black Ops 3 Zombies experience without having to pay over $70 to get it, then I'm in.

 

[Guymelef]

is this the call of duty switch is getting?

Yeah, that's why it's rated for PC, PS4 and XBO.

 

[Falchion]

Huh, could be cool if it's cheaper than buying the whole season pass.

 

[KDC720]

Is there any info on what this could be? I'm guessing its all the Blops 3 zombie maps in a single package, but if it is every map from all the Treyarch games then I might be interested.

 

[kuYuri]

According to another source, this isn't all of Black Ops 3 zombies, but rather older maps remastered in the Black Ops 3 engine or something like that.

We're not sure if it's DLC or a standalone release or both either.

 

[Ambient80]

Sounds awesome

Heard this zombies sucked though

BO3 and IW zombies were really fun, but getting all of the easter eggs can be aggravating. Some of the maps just get way too involved.

 

[Valkrai]

Best Zombies keeps on giving. As cool as IW Zombies is, it's not as good as Treyarch's

 

[giancarlo123x]

is this the call of duty switch is getting?

Every damn thread there's someone asking if it's for the switch, maybe click the link and see?

 

[JigglesBunny]

Give me WaW/BO1 Zombie maps and I'm satisfied.
No maps with those awful complicated quests and Easter eggs.

 

[fernoca]

Wouldn't mind buying this actually. Who knows.

 

[BigEmil]

Hoping it's remaster of Black Ops 1 zombies and not any of the awful Black Ops 3 zombies. Giants was the only decent one there more like original zombies
A best of zombies collection from all three would be good too i guess

 

[Nirolak]

I've updated the OP with what this is given it's leaked already.

 

[Livingskeletons]

Hell yeah I'd take any of these options.

 

[Randam]

Do I get that with the season pass?

 

[Livingskeletons]

I've updated the OP with what this is given it's leaked already.

Cool. Hope they don't change the maps too much. I hate the gum too, just give me perks

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Wait was transit treyarch? Ooo man if that's it I may have to buy this

 

[Alchemist]

Do I get that with the season pass?

Lol.

Spoiler

Don't hold your breath

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

Yeah, that's why it's rated for PC, PS4 and XBO.

that wasnt there when I posted and I dont own a switch, nor do I want one

What's the secret to enjoying Zombies? Playing only with friends? I remember trying to get into it a few games ago but I kept being yelled at that I'm playing it wrong.

Playing zombies with random suck. Nothing feels better than getting the squad together and tackling a zombie map for thef first time whooo than you all get progressively better,start going separate ways to divide the work load for doors,Easter eggs etc so good

 

[BigEmil]

That update, well looks like I'm in. Older zombies was best zombies and it being remastered to Black Ops 3 engine nice

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Oh is this dlc and not stand-alone? :/

 

[BigEmil]

Oh is this dlc and not stand-alone? :/

Zombies Chronicles sounds standalone

 

[MarveI]

I'll be IN if those 8 maps include the great maps like der Riese, Ascension, Mob of the Dead.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Hmm...never played Black Ops 3 before so I'm interested in this. But then again the reason I never played before was because I heard the campaign was....disappointing at best.

 

[Triforce141]

Treyarch should make the weapons pool of each map they're bringing back the same weapons, rather than replacing the M14 with the Sheiva or MP40 with the Kuda.

And bring back the Ray Gun Mk 2

 

[Duxxy3]

Really milking Black Ops 3.

 

[chronic_archaic]

Well, despite owning the season pass for multiplayer and having little playtime in Zombies - I'll be picking this up just because BO3 is really really good. I hate it's microtransactions more than any game ever but the core game is so damn good. This game's player numbers still outperform Infinite Warfare and MWR,

 

[HanzSnubSnub]

8 maps isn't the whole collection, so will it be fan favourites from WaW, BO1 and BO2?

 

[Nirolak]

Really milking Black Ops 3.

Well, it is still the best selling game this generation, so might as well.

 

[Triforce141]

8 maps isn't the whole collection, so will it be fan favourites from WaW, BO1 and BO2?

Actually, come to think of it. Revelations reusing old areas from past Zombies maps might have hinted what will be in this pack.

1. Nacht der Untoten
2. Verrückt
3. Shi No Numa
4. Kino der Toten
5. Shangri-La
6. Mob of the Dead
7. Buried
8. Origins

 

[MDSLKTR]

is this the call of duty switch is getting?

They'll squeeze it between ff7r and dark souls trilogy, just be patient

 

[kulapik]

So it's a BO3 GOTY edition. Huh, never seen Acti do that.

Ascension and Call of the Dead need to be in there...

Not necessarily, this is zombies only. This is more equivalent to Black Ops 1's Rezurrection DLC, which essentially remastered the WaW Zombies maps in the Black Ops 1 engine, in addition to adding a new Zombies map.

AKA the best DLC COD has ever produced.

 

[Collateral22]

No this is DLC 5 for BO3.

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

Really milking Black Ops 3.

If people are still playing it why shouldn't they make more content for it. Seems smart to me.

 

[Oregano]

that wasnt there when I posted and I dont own a switch, nor do I want one

Wasn't trying to make a dig, I'd love something like this on the Switch.

 

[xviper]

if they bring back Five, kino der toten, shangri-la and accension, i may buy black ops 3 used

 

[The Salt Life]

What an odd release

Not really, treyarch should have been pumping these stand alone zombie titles for years now. It's a long time coming.

 

[Lgndryhr]

Curious about this. Interesting release.
