Call of Duty: Ghosts' Onslaught DLC Now Free on PlayStation for This Weekend Only

First Xbox players got their chance, and now it's PlayStation gamers' turn...

Clear your weekend plans, because as of right now, Call of Duty: Ghosts' Onslaught DLC is free to try for the weekend on the PlayStation Network. So whether you game on the PlayStation 3 or 4, you're good to go. But enjoy it while you can, the offer's only good 'til Monday, April 28, 10 AM PSt / 1 PM EST.

The first DLC for Ghosts, Onslaught hit Xbox platforms first in late January, and arrived on PC and PlayStation systems at the end of February. You can see the DLC's announcement trailer here, and a recent live action trailer here. It added four new maps for the game's multiplayer mode, each with its own unique "bonus" for completing field objectives:

* Fog - players assume the role of the iconic babysitter bloodletter, Michael Myers of "Halloween," complete with trademark music and axe
* Bayview - call in a naval artillery strike
* Containment - call in an airstrike to detonate a radioactive missile, destroying anyone in the immediate area
* Ignition (a remake of Scrapyard from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2) - activate a test engine that ignites and burns enemies in the area

The DLC also brought in in additions for the game's alien hunting Extinction mode, picking up where the last mission, "Point of Contact," left off. Check out a recent trailer for the new episode here. It also adds in two new alien types:

- the "Phantom," capable of turning invisible mid-leap.
- the "Breeder," an enormous boss creature

You can get a closer look at the DLC's maps and alien newcomers here.

Lastly, and perhaps what a lot of gamers will enjoy most, the DLC adds in a new weapon, the two-in-one Maverick rifle, which can function as either an assault or sniper rifle. Have a closer look at it here.
