Activision releases Call of Duty: Black Ops Escalation Multiplayer Preview

Escalation DLC coming 1st May

Activision has released a gameplay and overview trailer for its forthcoming call of Duty: Black Ops second DLC pack; Escalation.

Last week Xbox Live’s Major Nelson unleashed the news that the Xbox 360 will exclusively be getting the second downloadable map pack in his official blog, but now we get a sneak peak at the 4 new maps and some wise words from the Activision/Treyarch team.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Escalation DLC will arrive for Xbox Live subscribers on May 3rd, and the Map pack will include 4 new maps and a new Escalation Zombie mode that is said to be a “new zombie experience”. The 4 multiplayer maps include:

  • Hotel – on the roof of a Cuban luxury hotel and casino against the vivid backdrop of old Havana
  • Convoy – delivers intense, close-quarters combat at the scene of an ambushed US military convoy
  • Zoo – takes you on a wild ride in an abandoned Soviet Russian Zoo, with danger at every turn
  • Stockpile – pits players in a remote Russian farm town housing secret WMD facilities.

In the meantime check out the Video below for a peak at the maps and try not to stare too intently at the end…
