Black Ops 3’s Story Revealed Through Twitter Campaign

September 29, 2015 by Stephen Daly

Story begins with an explosion in Singapore.

The official Call of Duty Twitter account has had a temporary name change, it's now the Current Events Aggregate and an unpaid Activision social media intern has been tweeting events in 2065 which lead up to Black Ops 3's story. 

Events relate to an explosion in Singapore, which leads to the city's authorities declaring a state of emergency. It seems to be some kind of biological or chemical explosion, as a quarantine zone is established and soldiers in hazmat suits are dispatched to the area. 

You can check out some of the tweets below and there are more on the Twitter account. 

BREAKING NEWS: Unconfirmed reports are coming in of an explosion on the North bank of the Singapore Marina.

In the game you play as a blank state, and can be a woman for the first time in a Call of Duty campaign. It was recently announced that the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game will not feature the campaign.
