I also got a chance to play through some of the new Zombies level, Die Rise. You start in what appears to be a hotel lobby, with a large desk, some stairs, an elevatorand a whole lot of sky where the wall should be. This is a skyscraper, and something apocalyptic happened here, because there are chunks of the building missing and destruction outside. The environment is so different that it creates new gameplay, explains producer Reza Elghazi. Its not just escaping zombies you have to worry about your environment, and just dying by falling. Zombies design director Jimmy Zielinski echoed that sentiment. This brings a lot of verticality and risk to your movements, he said. If you run and turn the corner, that corner might not be there. Take it slow, find out where you are, and make a plan and dont die.

Despite that warning, I died. Earning a little money let my crew unlock a few doors, clear away rubble, and see just how bad the surroundings were. The path we explored revealed more and more of the rubble a destroyed store, an abandoned inactive escalator, an open elevator shaft, holes in walls that led to unknown areasor just outside into thin air. At one point I stepped forward, only to slide into the remains of another building which has inverted. I found myself in a room where the clock and light fixtures were mounted upside-down, for instance. I wont ruin any surprises (no screens, even!); youll explore it soon enough yourself, and when you do, tell me what you can build with the parts I found scattered around the ruins. But I will say that we found that if everybody gets in the elevator at the start of the level, something happens


The thing that really caught my eye was the end of the paragraph, "... if everybody gets in the elevator at the start of the level, something happens...". My best guess is that the elevator shaft breaks and everyone dies, although that would take the fun out of the map a lil' bit. What do you think?

Possibly good theory but I think that sounds a little farfetched.

I also think it'll trigger the easter egg.

Breaking would be an option, or maybe something even to do with the EE? You never know with Treyarch, especially when One of Swords gives something like that away.

That'd actually be a pretty nice start to the EE if you think about it.
