Activision has released a preview video for Black Ops’ upcoming Annihilation map pack. Annihilation contains 4 new muliplayer maps: Hanger 18, Hazard, Drive-in and Silo, as well as a new Zombies map called Shangri-La. The third Black Ops map pack will be available on Xbox 360 in under two weeks on June 28th and will be accompanied by a double XP weekend that will start on July 1st.
Until then you can take a behind the scenes look at Annihilation from the developers, Treyarch.
Hanger 18 takes place in Area 51 and is packed with conspiracy-theory Easter Eggs. There's a nice mix of close quarter spots and strategic sniper spots.
Silo is based on a Russian underground nuclear missile construction site. It is also, the devs say, the biggest map in the game.
Drive-In Is meant to be another Nuketown-esque map. It's very small, but still has a nice mix of settings.
Hazard is a complete reimagining of World at War map Cliffside. The game has been reworked to include a massive golf course and designed to focus on long-distance engagements.
We also get a look at Shangri-La, the latest zombie mission in the game. The map has new weapons, items and ways to move around. This is meant to be a pretty tight map that pushes through the "levels" of the game.
Still no price, but $15 wouldn't be a surprise. The pack hits Xbox Live on June 28. No further information for PS3 and PC.
