“There’s a lot to absorb in Ancient Evil, and we can’t wait for the community to experience it.” – Jason Blundell, Director of Zombies, Treyarch.

First on Playstation®4 and with other platforms to follow, the latest adventure in the Black Ops 4 Chaos Zombies storyline is here! The companions wake from their mind-trip after the concluding events of “IX”, where Bruno, Diego, Scarlett and Shaw fought armies of undead within an ancient coliseum that culminated in a deadly battle against the High Priest of Chaos. Now tentatively exploring the subterranean caverns of Greece with newfound knowledge at hand, the team are guided by a strange, disembodied voice.

The voice belongs to the fabled Oracle of Delphi, trapped within the Temple of Apollo, and seeking freedom from her entrapment. Scarlett seems particularly keen on helping with this task, as the mystery of Scarlett’s father, Alistair Rhodes, is inextricably linked to the Oracle. So begins the exploration of a subterranean city -- a strange sunken settlement buried deep below the sacred, and almost-identical surface Greek city of Delphi. Built by unknown hands, it lies at the base of a gigantic underground cavern, and was undiscovered for centuries. Until now!

Jason Blundell explains: “So far, the Chaos story has introduced a lot of different myths of ancient gods and monsters - like the different towers dedicated to Odin or Ra in IX, or the Celtic myths in Dead of the Night. One of the most exciting things about this map is that it gets to really focus on the granddaddy of them all - Ancient Greek Mythology. It’s been such a joy to draw inspiration from such rich material, and actual historical locations, and get to bring it all to life in a really vivid way.”

“A great thing that this location offers in common with some our favorite maps, is that it’s very layered - You get these huge vistas and iconic landmarks and monuments - but there’s also so much more to it than initially meets the eye.”
