New Multiplayer Maps
The Revolution DLC Map Pack introduces four all-new Multiplayer maps, each designed to provide unique environments and strategic opportunities. The maps include:
1. Hydro – Set in a hydroelectric dam facility, this map features dynamic elements such as water that can flood certain areas, adding an extra layer of strategy.
2. Downhill – A snowy alpine setting that offers both long-range and close-quarters combat, perfect for snipers and run-and-gun players alike.
3. Grind – Located in a skate park in Venice Beach, California, this map’s curved surfaces and ramps create a unique battleground.
4. Mirage – Set in a luxury resort in the Gobi Desert, this map features sand dunes and a mix of indoor and outdoor combat zones.
New Zombies Content
The Revolution DLC also brings exciting new content to the Zombies mode, a fan-favorite feature of the Call of Duty series. The new Zombies map, “Die Rise,” is set in a crumbling skyscraper in a Chinese city. Players must navigate the vertical environment, using elevators and narrow ledges to survive against the undead horde.
In addition to the new map, the DLC introduces a brand new Zombies game mode called “Turned.” In this mode, players can experience the thrill of playing as a Zombie for the first time in the franchise’s history. The objective is to hunt down and infect the lone human player, who must fend off the zombie onslaught to survive. This mode adds a new layer of excitement and unpredictability to the Zombies experience.
Exclusive Multiplayer Weapon
Revolution also includes an exclusive Multiplayer weapon, the Peacekeeper SMG. This hybrid weapon combines the mobility of a submachine gun with the range and accuracy of an assault rifle, making it a versatile choice for various combat scenarios. The Peacekeeper SMG is sure to become a favorite among players looking to dominate the battlefield.
The Revolution DLC Map Pack lands first on Xbox LIVE on January 29th, 2013, for 1200 Microsoft Points, with other platforms to follow. This staggered release ensures that Xbox players get the first taste of the new content, while PlayStation and PC players can look forward to joining the action shortly after.
The addition of the Revolution DLC to Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 marks a significant milestone in the franchise’s history. By introducing new maps, a new Zombies experience, and an exclusive weapon, Treyarch continues to innovate and provide players with fresh and engaging content.
