Meet the New Maps: Detailed Breakdown
Gravity: Low-Gravity Laboratory (6v6 Core)
Drop into an underground military research facility where physics themselves become a weapon! Gravity is a medium-sized map featuring a revolutionary low-gravity chamber that completely changes combat dynamics. You’ll leap higher, float mid-firefight, and execute devastating vertical attacks that catch enemies off guard. The rest of the arena balances tight indoor combat in concrete bunkers and labs against open courtyard engagements across a tiled outer walkway. Pro tip: Look through the glass atrium to spot Mothball, another new map lurking deeper underground—a cool easter egg for observant players!
Rig: Fiery Truck Stop (6v6 Core)
Welcome to chaos at a deserted truck stop! Rig is a compact, intense map where a massive overturned rig has crashed into a gas station, igniting fierce firefights. This small arena thrives on high-speed, close-range gunfights. Combat flows through the Restaurant, Garage, and Motel balcony, with trucks and containers scattered for quick cover and ambushes. If you’re an SMG or shotgun enthusiast, Rig is your playground. Keep moving, stay unpredictable, and use those containers for tactical advantage. Static players won’t survive long here!
Mothball: Underground Tactical Arena (6v6 & 2v2 Strike)
Set directly beneath Gravity, Mothball draws inspiration from the campaign’s “Emergence” mission. This small underground map supports both standard 6v6 and 2v2 Strike modes, making it incredibly versatile. A golden statue splits the main arena, forcing tactical rotations and creating broken sightlines that demand skillful positioning. You can rush through the middle or use Hallways and Observation Wings to execute flanks. Perfect for players who love precise, methodical gameplay over raw aggression.
Boo-Town: Spooky Nuketown Variant (6v6 Core)
Call of Duty’s most iconic map gets a haunting seasonal makeover! Boo-Town brings back the beloved Nuketown layout completely transformed with Halloween aesthetics. Glowing pumpkins, animated spiders, skeletons, and eerie lighting drench the familiar cul-de-sac. Creepy laughter, creaking doors, and unsettling sound effects create an immersive atmosphere. Despite its spooky makeover, Boo-Town maintains the fast, chaotic gameplay that Nuketown enthusiasts crave. It’s the perfect seasonal celebration wrapped in thrilling multiplayer action!
Map Selection Strategy
Each map favors different loadouts and strategies. Aggressive players should dominate Rig and Boo-Town with SMGs, while tactical experts will excel on Mothball and Gravity. Consider your playstyle and choose accordingly. Don’t forget to experiment—you might discover unexpected strategies on unfamiliar terrain!
