Call of Duty®: Black Ops Plans Tactical Assault on Nintendo DS
SANTA MONICA, Calif., July 28 -- De-classifying previously top secret information, Activision Publishing, Inc. (NASDAQ:ATVI) revealed new details today about Call of Duty®: Black Ops' release on November 9th with the confirmation of an all-new companion game for the Nintendo DS(TM) family of hand-held systems, developed exclusively for the platform by n-Space. Call of Duty: Black Ops for the Nintendo DS will put gamers in the boots of CIA-backed operatives that are dropped into the shadowy world of deniable operations with an expansive arsenal of weapons at their disposal.
"Call of Duty: Black Ops for the Nintendo DS is going to take the handheld Call of Duty experience to a new level," said Dan O'Leary, n-Space Studio Head. "From taking the controls of an attack helicopter to flying an experimental stealth fighter jet, players will have a wealth of new features to utilize."
Call of Duty: Black Ops for the Nintendo DS will feature six-player online multiplayer mode with a new Perks System, as well as a unique two-player Co-Op mode and Arcade and Challenge Modes that allow gamers to replay the single-player missions to earn extra points to unlock additional achievements.
Call of Duty: Black Ops for Nintendo DS is rated "T for Teen" by the ESRB. For more information, visit http://www.callofduty.com/blackops and also via Twitter @JD_2020.
