Available only on PC via Steam, gamers can now get their hands on a multiplayer-only starter pack.
It costs just £11.59 and will allow players to partake in public ranked multiplayer matches.
Modes and features include Freerun, Arena, Gunsmith, Weapon Paint Shop, Black Market and Theater, but does not include access to Zombies or the single-player campaign.
Also unavailable are custom multiplayer matches, unranked matches and modded content, while levels are capped at 55.
The starter pack is only available until 29 February, but allows for an upgrade to the full game which rounds up to the complete Black Ops 3 price.

In other news, players were treated to a first-time Double Double XP event which expired last night.
Guns and characters were able to boost their levels with the bonus points, which went some way to getting fans back on side following last Friday's network problems.
Meanwhile, those struggling with new Zombies map Der Eisendrache will be pleased to learn that four new GobbleGums have been released.
Activision confirmed: "Der Eisendrache will bring Takeo, Richtofen, Nikolai and Dempsey to a medieval castle in the Austrian mountains, where mystery and the undead hordes await.
"Players won't go unaided in their fight for survival – Awakening introduces new tools for dispatching zombies, including a brand new set of GobbleGums.
"There are four new GobbleGums in total, which can be crafted in Dr. Monty's Factory and can be used not only in Der Eisendrache, but also Shadows of Evil and The Giant bonus map."
