Call of Duty: World at War has gotten its first set of downloadable content. It consists of three new maps, and a Zombie Mode map. They are as follows: Nightfire, Station, Knee Deep and Verruckt. All four maps will cost you a whole 10 bones on PSN or 800 MS points (will be available for PC “at a future date to be announced,” sorry). Fortunately for me, I was able to get a code from the guys over at Treyarch. Thanks again guys. I can’t wait to download them, but there is currently a “billing issue” on Xbox Live and I can’t redeem any codes at the moment. Major Nelson has assured us that it “will be fixed soon,” but I am not holding my breath because I would die. The new Zombie Mode map includes some new weapons, along with “perks-a-cola machines and electronic defenses, which will add more fun to the already awesome mode. I hope these issues are fixed soon because I can’t wait to play the maps and write up my impressions. I have posted the full press release below.
