'Call of Duty: Black Ops 2': Everything you need to know

We have gobs of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 content. Want to know the tiniest details about the new single-player Strike Force missions? We have video. Or maybe you want an overview of the level in which Los Angeles is destroyed by a fleet of drones? Here's a shot by shot recap. What about a run down of the reinvented multiplayer? Or the deep support of eSports? You got it. But what if you don't have time for all thousands of words and nearly 20-minutes of video. Good news, we have a cheat sheet. Here's the brass tacks. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 takes place in the the late 1980s, in which you play as Alex Mason, and in the year 2025, in which you play as his son, David Mason. Woods somehow survived the grenade blast in Black Ops and serves as narrator in the year 2025. He is old. The story details the rise of Raul Menendez, a villain determined to use the world's increasingly autonomous armies against themselves. Strike Force missions are non-linear levels scattered throughout the single-player campaign that allow players to shift between an entire team of soldiers and machines on a battlefield. Winning or losing these machines will determine the game's outcome in some considerable way. Multiplayer will be set entirely in 2025. It will include a map on an island of Yemen and a map at the center of downtown Los Angeles. The multiplayer is designing the game with e-sports in mind. There will be more Zombie modes. There will be horses.
