Activision has announced that, “by popular demand,” the Variety Map Pack for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered is releasing on March 21 for PlayStation 4. Priced at $14.99 USD, it will be available first on PS4, meaning Xbox One and PC players will likely have to wait 30 days.
Here’s what to expect from the newly remastered maps in the Variety Map Pack:
- Broadcast – Based on the TV station from the campaign mission Charlie Don’t Surf, this map provides a unique blend of confined corridors and wide-open spaces. Outside the station, the parking lot contains long sightlines, but once inside, cramped hallways and a computer-cluttered broadcast room provide ample close-range combat opportunities.
- Chinatown – Set in a foggy downtown district, this nighttime map is lit up by flickering neon signs and a full moon. A re-imagining of the original Call of Duty multiplayer map Carentan, players will need to be careful on these streets, as almost every building in the map can be occupied, providing perfect cover for enemies waiting for a chance to line you up in their sights.
- Creek – Set in a wide-open village ravaged by combat where concealment is the difference between life and death, a gaping ravine divides this map into two. Open clearings with sheer cliff faces and ample forested cover make this map ideal for snipers and long-range firefights.
- Killhouse – A small training warehouse filled with various building mock ups that feature soft and hard cover points. Expect fast-paced and fierce firefights for maximum close-quarters chaos.
The Variety Map Pack also includes 10 Rare Supply Drops (valued at $20). Additionally, pre-ordering the map pack from the PlayStation Store gets you a Variety Dynamic Theme.
Activision teased that “there’s even more coming to Modern Warfare Remastered this month.”
If you haven’t seen it yet, there’s a Call of Duty sale happening on the North American PlayStation Store this week.
