Modern Warfare 3 Content Collection #2

Written by James Pope

Modern Warfare 3 has announced what it is calling its biggest and most varied content drop in the franchises history, Content Collection #2. Players will see 5 new maps, 2 of which are designed exclusively for the new gameplay mode “faceoff” named Getaway and Lookout which will feature fiercely tactical locations and tight quarters allowing the 1 on 1 and 2 on 2 play options to truly shine. All in all players will receive 7 new pieces of content which have been described as:

  • Getaway: This former white-sand vacation spot, boasting exotic aquaria and surfside infinity pools, is now a Face Off map and a haven for ruthless run-and-gun violence.
  • Lookout: A perilous warren of chokepoints and tight corridors, the second Face Off map drops your one- or two-man teams into a forward observation base carved into a war-torn mountainside.
  • Sanctuary: Destroy the opposition—and the ornate relics of an ancient monastic order—in the towering sandstone cloister of central Greece’s Sanctuary. SMGs, assault rifles and shotguns will make short work of both.
  • Foundation: Choose your rules of engagement in this decommissioned cement factory in the heart of South Korea, perfectly constructed for both sniping and run-and-gun combat.
  • Oasis: Once a postcard-worthy holiday spot, now a paradise for a different sort of traveler—the ones who’ve traded fanny packs for combat fatigues. Pick your combat lanes carefully atop this ancient stone fortress turned five star resort.
  • Kill Switch: Armed with an EMP, you and a squad mate must neutralize a Russian carrier deep within enemy territory. This Special Ops Mission tasks one team member on the ground, fighting through hostiles on your way to the detonation site, while the other must maintain vital cover from behind a sniper scope.
  • Iron Clad: For the first time, take the wheel of an Abrams-class tank with full escort. Breach and clear and exfiltrate from behind enemy lines in Hamburg in this all-new Special Ops mission.

This content is now available on XBLA for 1,200 MS points and does not require a subscription to the elite service, the content will be released to other platforms at a later date.
