Call Of Duty: Black Ops III Gets New Patch, Adds Tweaks To Zombies Maps

Despite the fact that it's a year and a half old, Call of Duty: Black Ops III is seeing some serious business again from gamers, thanks to the addition of a new Zombies Chronicles map pack that reintroduces some of the best ones in the series for players to enjoy in one place. And, yes, we enjoyed it as well.

Today, to make sure that the Zombies content is still running smoothly, Treyarch has announced that a new patch has gone live for the game on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. While most of the important tweaks are for the PS4 version of the game (since it's the only one right now that has the Zombies maps), we've got the full list of what's been adjusted below:

Global:

• General Stability Improvements.

Multiplayer:

• Added measures to address exploitative 3rd party peripherals.
