Uprising DLCUprising is a new DLC pack for Call of Duty Black ops 2 that is due out tomorrow – here we will take a look at the features that you can expect to find:

Obviously the new content will arrive tomorrow so once we have our hands on the map pack we will update with some weapon loadouts that you can use and more in-depth strategies.

The first thing we will look at is the maps as this makes up a big part of the DLC.

The first map is:

Magma – This is a map where a volcano has erupted right through the center of the town so you will need to be aware of that while playing. This is also the first map where the lava will actually move and you can be burnt so you will need to keep an eye out.

This map playstyle will feature short and long range so you will be looking for an SMG or a Sniper weapon loadout on this one.

Make sure that you carry multiple weapon types, as you will need to swap between weapons quite quickly because the range changes quite a lot.

Again, you have to keep an eye out for the lava as you can get burnt fairly easily.

Encore – Gives you an outdoor stage amphitheatre in London. The best playstyle for Encore is to head around the outside of the stage in the seating areas with an SMG or shotgun or if you are good and want to rack up the score streaks head to the main stage as this will give you a height advantage but you need to be a quick shot.

Vertigo – This is set on a tall skyscraper. This map will be very fast paced and you will be able to jump from one path to another – even through the windows. So with this map you will be looking for an SMG loadout and also to know the routes. We will update this once the game is launched as we have not seen the map yet.

At first glance it looks like a close knit map however.

Of course it is high up as well so you can play around the edge but if you make a wrong move you will fall off!

Studio – This is a remake of the Black Ops Firing Range and it is set in a Hollywood backlot with about 4 different move themes running through the map. The movie themes go from aliens, pirates, Jurassic park and the Wild West.

You will want to try and head to the Castle tower for a good position as a sniper in this map and the tavern as they are the center points of the map.

The weapons you will want to use on Studio are either a long range Sniper or something with a lot of stopping power such as an LMG.

Mob Of The Dead:

This looks really good and is set on Alcatraz – think of it as a gangster movie mingled with a horror film. So if you want to see Al Capone as a zombie this is how you can do it.

Basically you will be fighting for survival in Alcatraz against zombies. There are also some changes on how zombie mode works. Basically if a player becomes a victim you will be sent into the afterlife.

We will need to update this guide on that feature as there is nothing on it at the minute so stay tuned for that but it looks interesting…

Uprising DLCIn this post we will run through what you get with the new DLC for Call of Duty Black Ops 2 which is due to drop on April 16th 2013.

They call it the most “fan centric” DLC package they have ever created!

You get 4 brand new maps:

Magma which is a Volcano map where the volcano has erupted right through the center of the town. This map will have both short range and long range play. On this map it looks like you will need to try a few different loadouts as you will need long range like a Sniper and short range like the Peacekeeper too. This is the first map ever that has lava which will burn you so you need to be careful!

Encore which is an outdoor amphitheatre map in London. This looks good as there is a center stage in the middle of the stadium and that looks like the focal point. If you can get there we think you will have a huge advantage and you will want to go for a weapon loadout that uses an LNG or something with a lot of stopping power.

Vertigo which is a tall skyscraper map with a helicopter launch pad. In this map it is on a skyscraper but you can also smash the windows and actually jump across into different sections. Looks like a close range map primarily so thinking something with the Peacekeeper for this one.

Studio is a map in Hollywood that is a movie set. You will find yourself fighting through UFO sets, Wild West, Jurassic parks sets and more. The main place you will want to be here is the Castle or the Tavern as they control the center of the map.

There is also a brand new zombies experience called mob of the dead. This looks really good and is set on Alcatraz!

There is not too much about the Mob of the Dead zombies pack but it looks like gangster zombies are coming…

Well worth picking this up – it is on the Xbox 360 first on April 16th 2013!
