The rumors were true… again.  Activision today announced Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies Chronicles, which is a new DLC expansion for Black Ops III which features several of the popular zombies co-op chapters from previous Call of Duty titles including World at War, Black Ops and Black Ops II.

Currently only announced for the PS4, the $29.99 expansion requires Call of Duty: Black Ops III and will contain eight remastered maps, bonus content, new weapons and more. The previous Season Pass does not cover this additional piece of DLC.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies Chronicles Story Trailer:

For the first time, experience the epic stories of the undead saga that started it all for Activision?s Call of Duty, together in one package: Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies Chronicles releases on May 16, first on the PlayStation Network for the PlayStation 4, and includes eight of the most beloved Zombies maps from previous Treyarch-developed Call of Duty games, including World at War, Black Ops and Black Ops II. The maps have been completely remastered from the ground-up, delivering many of the classic, thrilling Zombies origins storylines with stunning visuals, enhanced audio and new gameplay, all updated for today?s generation of consoles.

?Call of Duty?s Zombies has earned a special place in our hearts through its deep, layered gameplay, imaginative storylines and its compelling waves of action, which spans multiple titles,? said Rob Kostich, EVP and General Manager of Call of Duty, Activision. ?We?re excited to share with fans these incredible moments in one comprehensive offering, available together on current generation hardware.?

What began as an Easter egg unlock for completing the campaign in Call of Duty: World at War, has grown into a fan-favorite third mode with a hardcore community of fans.

?Zombies Chronicles is really about the community that made Zombies what it has become today,? said Jason Blundell, Co-Studio Head, Treyarch. ?Together, we?ve been slaying the undead for nearly ten years, across different game consoles, and Zombies Chronicles is really about bringing all of those fans together. If you played these maps before on previous consoles, you?re getting a new, stunning and challenging experience ? if it?s your first time, this is eight definitive experiences of our Zombies storyline, all in one place.?

Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies Chronicles is an unparalleled Call of Duty Zombies collection, taking players through the beginnings of the original saga in true HD. It features the classic characters that fans have come to know and love, as well as the deep storylines that made Zombies so popular. The collection adds vibrant current-generation visuals, enhanced lighting, revamped character models and environments, and updated AI and audio systems. Zombies Chronicles also lets players use custom weapons, including current weaponry featured in Black Ops III that wasn?t featured in the original maps.

The eight maps in Zombies Chronicles are:
