Black Ops Declassified won't have Zombies

Activision has confirmed there will be no Zombies Mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassifed.

Activision blogger, Dan Amrich, claimed zombies were left out because the development team wanted to focus on the multiplayer side of the game.

"'Will it have Zombies?' That's the top question I've gotten about the PlayStation Vita-exclusive Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified since it was announced," he explained.

"Unfortunately the official answer is no, but for what strikes me as a decent reason. Multiplayer took priority.

"That makes sense to me. This is the first Call of Duty game on Vita, and it needs to deliver on its core strengths - arguably, multiplayer gaming with twin-stick controls in a portable format.

"That's the core experience, and that simply needs to come first. There's always a list of things you want to do and things you need to do, and at the end of the day, realistic goals are the ones that people actually attain."

Amrich also went on to confirm that Declassifed will feature a Hostiles Mode.

"Declassified will offer a Hostiles Mode, which challenges you to defeat waves of enemies, but alas, those enemies are not shambling corpses. So we'll see what the future brings for Zombies, but for Declassified, it's an MP focus first and foremost."
