Popular Map Nuketown Is Returning To Call of Duty: Black Ops III

Good news, Call of Duty fans! The popular map Nuketown, which first debuted in Call of Duty: Black Ops, is returning in Call of Duty: Black Ops III. And according to Activision, it’s getting a redesign, and a brand new name.

The map will now be called “Nuk3town” and has been redesigned from the ground up to accommodate the new movement system being introduced for Call of Duty: Black Ops III. “The Nuketown maps have a special place in Call of Duty multiplayer history and we can’t wait to build upon that heritage in Black Ops III,” Treyarch Studio Head Mark Lamia said in a press release. “We carefully adapted the design of the map to make sure that it fit with our new movement system, but to also make sure that we retained the spirit and the fun that made fans fall in love with it in the first place.”

There are a couple of catches however. For starters, the map will only be available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC versions, so sorry Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 owners, you’re out of luck. Second, the map will only be available to people who pre-order the game, though it might be safe to assume that it will be available to download at a later time. Regardless, you’ll get your chance to play on this redesigned classic map when Call of Duty: Black Ops III releases on November 6th for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
