Mountain Dew has just announced a new Dew and Doritos promotion for the Black Ops 3 Zombies mode. The promotion will give fans access to Double XP in the Black Ops 3 Shadows of Evil Zombies mode.

Mountain Dew and Doritos has stated that the promotion will start on October 5th in the US, and fans can visit DewandDoritos.com to learn more after the October launch day. Codes in select marked packages of Mountain Dew and Doritos products will give fans access to 30 minutes of exclusive Zombies Double XP a day in Shadows of Evil map. This promotion is exclusive to the US.

The Zombies mode in Black Ops III features its own XP progression system for fans – a first for the Call of Duty® franchise – adding greater depth and more re-playability to the Zombies gameplay that players have come to expect. Starting in early October, fans in the U.S. can collect codes from specially marked packages of DEW® and Doritos products to redeem points and earn up to 30 minutes of exclusive Zombies Double XP per day as well as the chance to win other great prizes.
