Activision has posted a video teasing the fourth and final DLC pack for 2013’s Call of Duty: Ghosts, Nemesis.

The video shows a series of flashing game-related icons over the sound of a spinning game wheel while a carnival barker announces: “Round and round it goes! Where it stops…somebody’s gonna die!”

Nemesis will include four new multiplayer maps, each with unique field orders, such as “Goldrush”, a twisting network of tunnels and mine shafts wherein you can call down a pack of vicious wolves upon your opponents. “Showtime” turns up the heat by reimagining the smallest map in Call of Duty history, the Modern Warfare fan favorite “Shipment.” Nemesis also concludes alien invasion saga of the DLC Extinction mode with “Episode 4: Exodus” where you’ll make humanity’s final stand against the Cryptid onslaught.

This rounds out the DLC package for Ghosts, which has added, among other content, multiplayer maps, gameplay modes, Predator, and Snoop Dogg. Nemesis will arrive exclusively for Xbox consoles on August 5 for $15 alone or as part of a Season Pass package, with other platforms to follow. The new content should tide you over until Sledgehammer Games’ follow-up, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, comes out on November 4.

If you're excited at the prospect of playing split screen in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, we've got good news: You can! Even better news is that it's a straightforward and easy task to accomplish. All you'll need to ensure is that you have two controllers and that both usernames have been linked to their own Activision accounts. Once you've scored both controllers and gotten your accounts squared away, though, you'll only need to follow a few simple steps to start playing together.

How to get two primary weapons in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Soldiers battle in an abandoned airport.

Building your loadout in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the same as crafting your build in an RPG. Which weapons and perks you take can completely change how you play and what role you should take in any given match. Typically, you are restricted to equipping a primary and secondary weapon, but previous titles included a perk that allowed you to double up on primary weapons to essentially play double duty. That perk, Overkill, isn't in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, so you will need to look for a different solution to get two primary weapons this time around.

Instead of the Overkill perk giving you space to carry two primary weapons, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 introduces the Gunner Vest. This is a piece of gear rather than a perk, and can be unlocked when you hit level 20, or you can use the Overkill vest when you hit level 50. The Gunner vest lets you start with more ammo, reload faster, and, most importantly, equip two primary weapons.

It's been almost a year since last year's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was released, which means it's time for the next installment in the annual shooter franchise. This time we're completing the trilogy (again) with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. This entry has already generated a lot of hype among fans of the franchise for the inclusion, and return, of some highly requested features such as the mini-map and Zombies mode.

Sticking to the usual late-fall release schedule, Modern Warfare 3 will officially launch on November 10 of this year, but that doesn't mean you have to wait until then to get a taste of what's to come. If you play your cards right, you can get in on the beta to sharpen your skills before the competition.
