By Alex OsbornUpdate: A handful of what appear to be leaked images of Call of Duty: Black Ops III's marketing materials have popped up online, revealing a number of new additions to Activision's long-running FPS franchise, including a co-op campaign that supports up to four players online.
The campaign will allegedly feature character progression as well, allowing players to fully customize their soldier's loudouts, outfits, and more.
The leaked images also note that Black Ops III will feature an entirely new "momentum-based chain-movement system," which aims to make traversal all the more fluid, thanks to new mantling abilities, as well as controlled thrust jumps and slides.
Finally, the purported leak also details the game's Zombies mode, which will boast a "full XP-based progression system" for added depth and replayability.
Original Story: Call of Duty: Black Ops III will release on November 6, 2015, according to a leaked GameStop flyer that just surfaced online.
The photo of the retailer's alleged marketing materials, sent to Kotaku, note the aforementioned launched date, as well as details on an upcoming beta for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC owners who pre-order Treyarch's upcoming shooter.
It's important to note, however, that upon closer inspection, there's a line of fine print, which reads: "Actual platform availability and launch date(s) to be determined."
Another strange detail is that Nov. 6 falls on a Friday, whereas games almost always launch on Tuesdays. There's also no mention of last-gen versions on the flyer.
Kotaku's source of the leak claims the pre-order promotional material will be handed out to consumers this coming Sunday, April 26, when Activision is holding its Black Ops 3 "world reveal." Since the publisher has yet say anything official about the game's release date or alleged beta, we'll have to treat this all as mere rumor for the time being.
We reached out to Activision for comment.
