— Description.

Realistic is a difficulty level introduced in Call of Duty: Black Ops III. Realistic is the hardest difficulty level in the game and can only be playable once the player has beaten the campaign on any difficulty.

Gameplay[]

In Realistic, the enemy AIs are smarter and improved when compared to their Veteran counterparts. If the player gets hit by a single bullet or explosion, they will most likely die as surviving even with a slither of health is extremely rare.

Completing a level in Realistic difficulty increases the EXP gains by 50%. The player will earn more achievements and trophies for completing the game on Realistic. Upon completion of a Realistic campaign, the No One Will Believe You and Full Circle achievements are unlocked.
