Publisher Activision is contributing to the already crowded month that is May with the release of the second map pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops, dubbed Escalation. Per exclusivity agreements, it’s hitting Xbox Live first, on May 3 to be specific. While a release will follow on PC and PS3 at a later date, the company isn’t ready to say when.

It ushers in four all-new multiplayer maps — Zoo, Convoy, Hotel and Stockpile, along with a “Zombies experience like none before it.”
“In crafting the Escalation multiplayer maps — Zoo, Convoy, Hotel and Stockpile — the team developed them to be distinct experiences in their own right, giving players the variety they crave in both setting and gameplay,” said Treyarch Studio Head, Mark Lamia. “And I don’t want to spoil any surprises for Zombies fans, but Call of the Dead takes it to a whole new level.”

I'm excited for Zombies. Not so much the other maps.

BlackSheep says:

People still play Blops?

Dan says:

Yeah same, especially since the mega easter eggs they've been putting in (wtf'd when I found out about the Ascension one).

Details of this leaked quite a while back I think, some Australian site put the banner up and Activision were pretty mad.

Robby says:

Thousands play it daily.
