In what could act as a timely booster to players of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, developers Sledgehammer Games has announced the release of the second DLC pack, Ascendance. While The company has sounded the call for its players to be "prepared" for the new DLC.

The four new multiplayer maps will bring some excitement back in the game (Call of Duty Community):

- Site 244 – Set in the backdrop of Mount Rushmore that has seen a mysterious cargo being dropped from an alien spacecraft. So the focus of the battles is on the fuselage and the debris of the Space ship.
