Call of Duty: Ghosts' Chaos Mode Hits PlayStation Thanks to New Patch

New Title Update Gives PlayStation Call of Duty: Ghosts Gamers the Same Content that Hit Xbox and PC Versions Last Week

Last week, PC and Xbox Call of Duty: Ghosts gamers were treated to a throwback mode, along with some new DLC. Now, the same content has made its way over to the PlayStation formats courtesy of new patches. Well, not the packs, just the new game mode.

Dubbed "Chaos Mode," the new option is meant for Ghosts' Exctinction game. Modern Warfare 3 players will recognize it as a re-hashed version of ME3's Special Ops mode, but with hordes Extinction's Cryptids replacing standing in for Warfare's soldiers. Four players can take part in the new mode on Extinction's "Point of Contact" and "Nightfall" maps, starting with handguns (with additional weapons scattered throughout the maps) and two minutes on the clock. An arcade mode of sorts, players must then mow down an endless barrage of enemies, and earn perks at every tenth multiplier.

Apart from that, the patches also throws in a few weapon tweaks, some map changes, etc. All in all, it's pretty similar to the same patch that hit Xbox and PC versions last week. You can check out the notes below, courtesy of the Call of Duty forums:
