Black Ops III + Nuketown for PC is a first-person shooter game set in 2065 in a world transformed by climate change and incredibly advanced technologies. It is the twelfth Call of Duty game.

The game is quite tightly mission-based, with little open world exploration allowed, but there is no sense of being funnelled along and deprived of chances to explore: you do get to grab a moment here and there to enjoy the gorgeous and well-realised scenery.

Weather events like monsoons and sandstorms are accurately depicted and will take your breath away as though you were experiencing the real thing, and they do sometimes interact in the game too, slowing you down or minimising visibility.

This edition of Black Ops dives deep into psychological trauma, taking you into the traumatised mind of a long-suffering veteran where hallucinations, time-slips and symbolic messages are everywhere.

The game raises a number of philosophical questions too, regarding the treatment of soldiers by their governments and the relative humanity of robots, AI technology, and augmented humans.
