"Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" will be welcoming its first downloadable pack (DLC) pack on Feb. 2, 2016. 

The DLC pack, known as "Awakening" will be bringing a bunch of new content to the game, including the Zombies mode map Der Eisendrache.

In Der Eisendrache, players will be tasked with surviving inside a castle while a raging snowstorm awaits outside the walls of the medieval structure, according to GameSpot.

Aside from the new Zombies map coming to "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3," there will be four more multiplayer maps added to the game courtesy of the "Awakening" pack.

First of the new multiplayer maps is Gauntlet, and in here, players will engage in combat as they make their way through the varied areas of a military facility.

Next up is Rise, and this map features a construction site being constantly battered by the snow.

After that is Skyjacked, and this map pits players against one another while they are flying high in an airship.

The last of the multiplayer maps is Splash. In Splash, players will have to navigate through an abandoned waterpark as they look for their opponents.

All of the new content coming via the "Awakening" pack will first debut in the PlayStation 4 (PS4) port of "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3."

"Awakening" is expected to make its debut on personal computer (PC) and Xbox One about a month later, according to VG 247.

The PS4 port of "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" is receiving the "Awakening" DLC a month ahead of other platforms, thanks to a deal that Sony secured with Activision earlier in 2015.

Unfortunately, not all owners of "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" will be receiving the new content.

As it stands right now, the "Awakening" DLC pack is not scheduled to be released for both the Xbox 360 and PS3 ports of "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3."
