Treyarch and Activision have confirmed that they will be presenting the eSports features for the new game "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" at the upcoming Gamescom 2015 next week.

"Black Ops 3" is 2015's biggest entry when it comes to first-person shooter games and Treyarch aims to continue these releases by introducing added features and mechanics of the game.

The live broadcast of the eSports Reveal will happen on August 5 and will be from an event held in Cologne, Germany. In this reveal, developers will introduce better eSports tools featured in "Black Ops 3," according to a report from Softpedia.

The reveal will start at 10 a.m. PST or 7 p.m. CEST (1 p.m. EST). Fans should tune in at those times to see the gameplay details as well as game competition among professional "Call of Duty" players.

In another news, Treyarch and Activision, in collaboration with Omaze, a charity event organizer, have started a campaign that lets players have the opportunity to be a zombie in the new "Call of Duty" game, as reported in Attack of the Fanboy. The winner will be featured in the game by having their face scanned and converted into a zombie, which will appear in the world of "Call of Duty."

As if becoming a zombie in the game is not awesome enough, it was also reported that a contestant can get the chance to win a trip to Hollywood with a friend, visit the "top-secret offices" at Treyarch, and even have the chance to meet game designers.

The team will then use the winner's face to be featured in the latest game installment for "Call of Duty" and be the face of terror on the screen of many players worldwide.

The chance to win all those prizes will require a contestant to shell out money though, but for a good cause.

It will be part of the Call of Duty Endowment, which is a non-profit organization that aims to help veterans get a job. Every $1,000 raised by the charity will help a veteran land a job.

Meanwhile, "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" will be launched for several game platforms on Nov. 6.
