Call of Duty: WWII — Slegehammer features Hitler’s Wolf’s Lair map in The Resistance DLC

Call of Duty: WWIIs‘s return to the “boots on the ground” combat of the Second World War has proven to be very popular, and now Activision and developer Sledgehammer Games are revealing the first gameplay trailer and additional details of The Resistance as the first downloadable content (DLC) for 2017’s top-selling game.

The DLC adds three new maps and content that highlight the resistance to Nazi Germany. The French Resistance was part of the single-player campaign in one mission. Now you’ll have new fictional and historical experiences with the resistance on a variety of fronts and war regions in the new DLC. It makes the point that the real war had so many points of resistance to the Nazis beyond the well-known French effort.
