Activision has announced Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will receive its second downloadable expansion, the Ascendance Pack, beginning on March 31. As always, Xbox One and Xbox 360 owners will get first crack at the DLC. PC, PS3, and PS4 players will likely gain access to the add-on content sometime in late April or early May. The Ascendance Pack will feature four new multiplayer maps including an alien crash site, an apartment complex down under, a Pauly Shore-less biodome, and a illegal robotics chop shop:

Perplex: Venture to the streets of Sydney and battle through a five-story modular apartment complex. With elevated vantages and tight corridors, Perplex is small-to-medium sized map that fits variety of play styles. Construction drones will shake things up, however, as they shift apartment modules and create new strategic pathways.

Site 244: An alien craft has crash-landed beneath Mt. Rushmore, USA, making for an awesome medium-to-large sized three-lane map littered with extraterrestrial debris. Gain a competitive edge by earning the map-based scorestreak to open an alien spore that enhances your perks and exo abilities.

Climate: Settle in to your dome away from home in Climate… a lush climate-controlled biodome. With a circular layout with a central island structure for teams to fight for control of, Climate keeps the pace of the action high. The tides can turn, however, when the rivers begin to rage and become a treacherous obstacle.

Chop Shop: Discover the seedy underbelly of the unauthorized exoekeleton trade in Chop Shop, a medium-sized industrial complex with a devastating map-based scorestreak: the Advanced Repulsion Turret.

The Ascendance Pack will also add the OHM directed energy hybrid weapon and a brand new Exo Zombies chapter, “Infection,” that finds the four survivors “on the outskirts of the mutant-ravaged Atlas Corporation facility and facing new, never-before-seen enemies.” John Malkovich, Bill Paxton, Rose McGowan, and Jon Bernthal will once again supply their voices to the cooperative game mode.

According to Activision, the first gameplay trailer for the Ascendance Pack will be unveiled on March 29 during the Call of Duty Championship.
