Call of Duty: Ghosts Invasion map pack feels like modern combat injected into other adventure games

Activision has unveiled the third downloadable content (DLC) pack for Call of Duty: Ghosts.

The Call of Duty: Ghosts — Invasion pack, which has four new multiplayer maps and new episode of the bug-killing Extinction narrative, will arrive on June 3 on Xbox Live for Xbox One and Xbox 360. The timing is interesting, as Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer needs to hang on to its players even as hardcore fans gravitate to Ubisoft’s new Watch Dogs open-world hacking game. The audiences may be very different, but both compete as blockbusters.
