    Seeing improvements in all facets and some unexpected inclusions, Ascendance is a good DLC pack for Advanced Warfare. Hopefully we’ll see more of this going forward.

    Ascendance brings plenty of good new elements to Advanced Warfare. While most maps are fun, Chop Shop is by far the least interesting and most generic. Fortunately, the Exo Grapple ability and playlist make up for it.

    This DLC brings you home a new playlist with the ability to use the grappling hook, four new maps, a new location zombie weapon and brand-new. For its price, it's pretty satisfying.

    A nice piece of content that manages to try new things on the DLC side of Call of Duty. Despite that, the new maps are not particularly memorable, they darkens the good effort from the developer.

    There are some nice new touches, including the objective of protecting survivors – which I found helped bring everyone back together again – as well as a crazy powerful mech-armoured Goliath zombie. If you thought exo zombies were evil, this guy is basically Satan.

    There are a few flashes of brilliance in the maps delivered in Havoc and Ascendance, but I'm hoping that John Malkovich and the crew won't have to carry so heavy a load for the next two add-ons.

    4 interesting multiplayer maps, specific modes using a new tool - the Exo-Grapple - and an attractive Exo Zombie mission... Ascendance is everything Havoc should have been: brilliant additional content.
