Treyarch’s Dan Bunting was a guest on the latest episode of the Major Nelson podcast and he went on to reveal the first downloadable content package for Call of Duty: Black Ops. “First Strike,” as the new content is called, is a timed exclusive for the Xbox 360 and will be out on February 1 for 1200 MS Points/$15.
The pack will contain four new multiplayer maps and one new zombie map. The maps Discovery and Kowloon are based on areas from the single-player campaign, Berlin Wall is a map set at the famous Checkpoint Charlie in Germany and the best of the new maps is Stadium, set in a hockey rink/athletic complex. Yes, really.
The new zombie map is called Ascension and no info was really given on this map. Expect more news including screenshots in the coming weeks.
February seems like a good time to keep fans engaged in the shooter, especially with Homefront and Bulletstorm releasing in the same period.
