How co-op works

Up to four players complete the campaign or Zombies online; two can share a screen on supported versions. Campaign squads combine weapons and abilities, while Zombies teams buy gear and perks, unlock routes, revive one another, and solve each map’s objectives between escalating rounds.

About this game

Black Ops III delivers two distinct experiences: competitive multiplayer battles and the cooperative Zombies mode that teams players against waves of the undead. The Zombies Chronicles Edition bundles the full campaign, multiplayer suite, and eight remastered Zombies maps alongside the original content.

Zombies mode thrives on communication and teamwork as squads scavenge for weapons, unlock new areas, and hold defensive positions against relentless hordes. The multiplayer side features fast movement mechanics, specialist abilities, and weapon customization that reward quick reflexes and tactical coordination.

Split-screen local play supports shared-screen sessions, while online co-op lets distant squads tackle Zombies maps together. Remote Play Together extends couch co-op options across networks. Whether defending against zombies or competing in traditional deathmatch modes, Black Ops III offers flexible setups for groups who want action-driven sessions.
