Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Getting Another Doritos/Mountain Dew Promotion

Not surprisingly, Call of Duty is getting another promotion with Doritos and Mountain Dew. However, this time in Black Ops III, the double XP you get with your purchase of the drink or chips is applied to the game's Zombies mode, and not its competitive multiplayer.

Black Ops III is the first Call of Duty game to feature an XP progression system in Zombies, and this is the first Mountain Dew/Doritos promotion to focus on that mode. According to publisher Activision, the double XP is exclusively earned by purchasing the snacks.

Along with the promotion, Mountain Dew is bringing back an old flavor and launching a new flavor. In early October, you'll be able to get Game Fuel Citrus Cherry and Game Fuel Berry Lime in addition to the normal Mountain Dew flavors. These drinks will be available for purchase from online retailers all year.

I don't think those new flavors will go too well with the suite of Doritos. With flavors like Jacked Ranch Dipped Hot Wings and Jacked 3D Jalapeno Pepperjack, you'll probably want to stay away from Mountain Dew Citrus Cherry.

This isn't the only crossover promotion with one of Activision's games, either. Destiny currently has a promotion with Red Bull that will get you access to a quest when The Taken King expansion launches in September.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III will be released on November 6 for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PC. Recently, Activision announced when you'll be able to try the game out during its beta test.
