It stands to reason that Activision was quite pleased with the initial reception for Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 1. After all, the four-map, $10 add-on content accrued more than 1 million downloads during its first weekend on Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network. It comes as no surprise, then, that the publisher is prepping a second.
Today, Activision confirmed that the Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2 will be available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in June. Pricing information was not revealed, though Map Pack 2 will include the same number of battlegrounds as the first batch of DLC.
Like Map Pack 1, Map Pack 2 will include three standard online multiplayer arenas. Banzai takes place deep in enemy territory as players vie for control of a tall bridge over a river. Corrosion sees players journeying to Mother Russia to do battle in a dilapidated train yard. Sub Pens features close-quarters firefights in a bombed-out submarine base.
Map Pack 2 will also include a zombie-infused co-op battleground titled Shi No Numa, where players join up to lay waste to Imperial zombies. In addition to undead Imperial Japan grunts, the map features Hell Hounds, Perk machines, and a new weapon: the Wunderwaffe DG-2. Players will be able to earn additional Xbox 360 achievement points or comparable PS3 trophies.
