January 7, 2013 by Ian Miles Cheong

The next DLC for Black Ops 2 is set to include a number of maps and a new gun.

Black Ops 2 offers plenty in the way of multiplayer content, and it's set to get even bigger with an expansive DLC dubbed "Revolution". The plans to release the expansion were outed by British retailers HMV and Amazon.co.uk, which released a poster teasing the DLC's purported January 29 release date.

Amazon's UK website describes the Revolution DLC as follows, and lists it as having an exclusive Xbox Live release on the aforementioned date:

"Welcome to the Revolution

Revolution is the first downloadable content pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops II, containing four of the most exciting Multiplayer maps, a thrilling new Zombies map and for the first time ever, a new weapon – The Peacekeeper SMG."

Revolution costs 1200 Xbox Live Points and is a part of the game's DLC season pass.

The DLC includes four new maps: Hydro, Downhill, Grind, and Mirage. The Zombies mode in Black Ops 2 will also be expanded with a new map called "Die Rise", which sees a zombie invasion of China that turns a downtown city into an MC Escher-esque painting. Players who purchase the DLC are entitled to unlock a new weapon called the Peacekeeper SMG. Descriptions of the maps follow.

• Hydro–This large map allows you to use the dam and water to your advantage to block paths and stop enemies.
• Downhill–A medium-sized map based in the French Alps complete with snow, chair lifts, and a strategically placed lodge.

• Grind–Set within the locale of the Venice, California boardwalk, this small skate park map is sure to deliver fast and frenetic Call of Duty action.

• Mirage–This Gobi Desert multiplayer map utilises sand dunes to provide different levels of elevation and a sanctuary in the centre as a natural chokepoint.

It's described as an "impressive sub-machine gun" that "fills the open weapon slot in your load-out with power and accuracy".

In addition to its release on the Xbox 360, Revolution expected to come out for the PC and PS3 on February 28—a whole month later. There's no word on whether it'll be released on the Wii U.
