World At War Map Pack 2 Revealed; Map Pack 1 Breaks 2M

PS3, Xbox 360

Treyarch has confirmed plans for Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2. Set for release in June, the second pack will feature three multiplayer maps and one new Zombie map, and appear on the Xbox 360 and PS3.

“Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2 underscores Treyarch’s commitment to delivering ongoing support, and new multiplayer and co-op Zombie gameplay experiences for our players,” said Treyarch Studio Head, Mark Lamia. “Our community has been outstanding and has driven support for Map Pack 1, as well as demand for additional downloadable content like Map Pack 2.”

Online, players will compete in “Banzai,” and fight for control of a tall, river bridge, deep within enemy territory; face down foes in a shattered Russian train yard in “Corrosion”; and struggle to control a bombed-out submarine base in the close-quarter map, “Sub Pens.” In “Shi No Numa” (Zombie Swamp), Imperial Zombies rise from misty swamps in an all new co-op experience, with a level that features a mix of traps, flaming Hell Hounds, Perk machines and the deadly, new Wunderwaffe DG-2, as well as 10 new Xbox 360 Achievements/PS3 Trophies that can be earned along the way.

In other news, Activision and Treyarch just announced that worldwide sales for the first downloadable map pack have cleared the two million download mark in the combined sales of Xbox LIVE and the PlayStation Network.

“This is a huge milestone and we are so appreciative of our incredibly supportive community who continue to play and enjoy the game,” said Lamia. “We’re hard at work on Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2 and look forward to delivering that in June.”
 
The first map pack also contains four maps, and is available for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE or $15.95 on the PSN.
