Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 confirms a new map for its Battle Royale mode Blackout. You will land in Alcatraz and fight against zombie inmates.
What kind of map is coming? So far, there has only been one map for Blackout, but Call of Duty is now adding more. With “Alcatraz,” a completely new game world is coming, taking you to the famous prison island off the coast of San Francisco.
This new map will be playable starting tomorrow and will also bring back zombies that were once inmates and will now attack you mercilessly.
What is known about the map “Alcatraz”
It was already known: Just a few days ago, fans speculated about this prison island. Back then, it was said that the island should be part of the standard map for Blackout.
It is now known that it will be a completely separate map. Fans were correct in their suspicion that it would be Alcatraz.
Who gets to play? The map will initially be available for PlayStation 4. Fans can start playing on April 2. PC and Xbox One are set to follow a week later.
What is known about the map? The developers released a video about the map on the Call of Duty YouTube channel:
It appears that the map is relatively small, as the trailer shows its actual size. The action seems to be contained only on the island. So, you will be fighting between buildings and watchtowers, but also in the cell blocks.
These locations are already known: Those familiar with the game may discover locations from the zombie maps “Mob of the Dead” and “Blood of the Dead,” which are also set on Alcatraz.
How many people can play? Nothing is known yet about the number of participants per round. However, since the map will be relatively small, the number of participants is expected to be lower than on the previous Blackout map.
This is available for free: In order to properly celebrate the new map, Treyarch announced that all interested players will have free access to the Blackout mode until April 30. This applies from the release of the new map. More information can be found here: Play Black Ops 4 Blackout with the new map for free in April – All info
