'Call of Duty: Black Ops 3' Awakening DLC releases for Xbox 360

(Twitter / Major Nelson / Call of Duty: Black Ops 3)Xbox 360 users can grab and experience 'Call of Duty: Black Ops 3' DLC1 on May 5.

The agonizing wait for an Xbox 360 gamer is over since "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" DLC1 Awakening is  now available on May 5.

This good news comes from a Twitter post by Major Nelson. Some gamers can recall that DLC1 came out for the PlayStation 4 last Feb. 2, and 30 days after, Xbox One and the PC also had the chance to play the new content. Some gamers, on the other hand, felt that the release on the Xbox 360 is a bad move by the studio since newer games are coming out soon, especially with the teaser video of the new "Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare" that is set to hit markets on Nov. 4.

Perhaps the reason behind the release of the DLC for last-generation consoles may be attributed to the business aspect.

DLC1 Awakening will introduce four new competitive maps and the introduction to the Zombie adventure. Gauntlet map highlights a three-lane map structure where players have to coordinate their attack and use the jungle environment to their advantage. Splash, on the other hand, is a map filled with color and imagination since it is set in a waterslide park. Gamers may be easily swayed by the beautiful structures but should be wary there are still enemies ready to ruin that beauty. Rise highlights the close quarter combat mechanics of the game since it is set inside an industrial complex. It is good to note that gamers should watch their corners to increase their survivability. Finally, Skyjacked is the map for gamers who love to compete on the edge since it is set on a flying aircraft where one wrong step can kill the player.

In related news, "Call of Duty Black Ops 3" DLC 2 Eclipse already hit the markets for the PlayStation 4 on Apr. 19, while PC and Xbox One users may have to wait after 30 days to get this DLC.

More "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" DLC news and updates coming soon.
