The release date of "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" downloadable content 3 (DLC 3) has yet to be officially announced. However, speculations suggest that the military science fiction shooter game will be presented during the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) that will be held on June 14 to 16 and then be launched at a later date within same month. Fans anticipate its alleged June release despite other reports claiming that the "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" DLC 3 release date will be difficult, if not impossible, to predict because of the inconsistency in the release patterns of its predecessors.

Sony, which still has exclusive rights to "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3," and video game publishing company Activision will both present at E3, which will be held in Los Angeles. They are expected to discuss the upcoming "Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare." This only heightens the expectations and increases murmurs among gamers that the "Black Ops 3" third DLC will also be launched by the two companies at the expo.

There are claims that the third add-on will be released before E3. Others say "Black Ops 3" DLC 3 will be presented alongside "Infinite Warfare" at the event. Meanwhile, there are also those who believe that the release happen after E3. Amid all these uncertain theories, some fans admit that guessing the release date of "Black Ops 3" is futile, following the absence of a uniform pattern in the launch of "Awakening" and "Eclipse" DLCs, which were early February and middle of April, respectively.

Gotta Be Mobile forecasts that the "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" DLC 3 will find its way to launch a week after the E3 event, likely between June 21 to 23, reasoning out that the game has been in the works for quite some time now.

It is also worth noting that the third DLC of "Black Ops 3" will at once be available on PlayStation 4 (PS4) upon launch, given the fact that Sony has exclusive rights over the game. On the other hand, PC and Xbox One users will have to wait for one month following the official release of the game.
