Hey guys, it's almost here! First Strike is an upcoming downloadable content package for Call of Duty: Black Ops. It will include four multiplayer maps and one zombie mode map. So far, it has been confirmed to be released on February 1, 2011 for Xbox 360 only. It will cost 1200 MS Points ($15.00). Unfortunately, PS3 and PC users will have to wait till March or April to purchase the map pack. Treyarch has announced that all four multiplayer maps are "interactive" or "actively changing", like the doors on Radiation and the random rocket takeoff on Radiation. The bonus pack also includes a zombie map called Ascension.
