Black Ops 3: 7 Things You Need to Know After Christmas

Black Ops 3 Updates

We've seen two major Black Ops 3 updates arrive since the release date in November. If you get the game for Christmas you will need to install the latest update before you can play.

Plan on this taking a little time if you put the game in on Christmas morning, since it is possible millions of other gamers will be doing the same thing at the same time.

In addition to the bigger updates Treyarch also offers smaller hotfix updates that can change weapons and tweak gameplay in smaller ways.

A new Black Ops 3 hotfix arrived right before Christmas, and we don't expect any major changes until the new year.
