Video game developer Infinity Ward and publisher Activision are eager to generate hype for the coming Onslaught downloadable content pack for Call of Duty: Ghosts and are offering a new official trailer for the Episode 1: Nightfall, the episodic narrative included in the DLC.

The companies explain that, "At a remote facility in the Alaskan wilderness, the shadowy Nightfall Program has been researching the origins of the 'Alien' threat. When the scientists lose control, a small team of elite soldiers must retrieve the intel, exterminate hordes of hostile creatures, and survive a three-story tall terror."

Episode 1: Nightfall is the first part of the narrative and gamers will have to get all the other DLC packs for Call of Duty: Ghosts to see the conclusion of the story.

Onslaught will be first delivered via Xbox Live on January 28, with a host of new maps, a new weapon and more tweaks for the multiplayer mode.

Gamers on other platforms will have to wait about one month before they get the DLC.
