Call of Duty: Black Ops II's Revolution DLC Announced
Update: Activision has announced the Revolution DLC, which contains four new multiplayer maps and the zombies map Die Rise.
The DLC also includes the zombie mode Turned where zombie players hunt the lone human player.
As was rumored below, it will cost $15 by itself, but is included in the Season Pass.
Revolution comes out first for Xbox 360 (1200 Microsoft Points) on January 29.

Original Story: Could we be looking at the first information about Call of Duty: Black Ops II's DLC? An image has been popping up online, purportedly from a promotional poster. In it, details about the DLC, called "Revolution," are revealed.
According to the image (posted on Reddit), the Revolution DLC will include five maps: Hydro, Downhill, Grind, Mirage, and Die Rise. That last one looks like a zombies map, judging from the punny name and, well, the image of a zombie. If it pans out, players will also get access to a new weapon, the Peacekeeper SMG.
If past DLC is any indication, Revolution would cost about $15, though it would likely be included in the game's $50 season pass. Xbox 360 players would get their hands on it first, as well, with the content hitting other platforms a few months later.
This news is far from official, so take it with the requisite grain of salt. We've reached out to Activision about it, and we'll be sure to update this story if we hear anything beyond the typical "We don't comment on rumors or speculation."
