If we assume the information in both wiki links I posted above are correct, the engine is the same since COD 2 (2005) with updates/modifications.

Call of Duty 2 (2005) - IW 2.0
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007) IW 3.0
Call of Duty: World at War (2008) - IW 3.0 (Modified)
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009) - IW 4.0
Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010) - IW 3.0 (Heavily Modified)
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (2011) - MW3 engine (Modified IW 4.0)
Call of Duty: Black Ops II (2012) - Black Ops II engine (Heavily Modified IW 3.0)
Call of Duty: Ghosts (2013) - Updated IW 4.0
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (2014) - IW 5.0

If the pattern continues the Black Ops 3 Engine will be called IW Engine 6.0

MW3's engine was unofficially IW 5.0. Ghosts' was IW 6.0, and AW's is a modified/rebuilt IW 5.0. Treyarch's version of the IW engine has no specific numbering, since they do their own engine upgrades that differ from IW's.

And to answer OP's question, Black Ops III will be using a heavily modified version of the Black Ops II engine.

I'm not saying your wrong... I'm just saying that my info was not made up. It was all gathered from the sources I listed in my first comment on in this discussion. http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/IW_Engine
