As we promised yesterday, the latest update for Call of Duty: World at War is now live. Map Pack 2 has been unleashed on the world, delivering four new maps - including some all-new zombies - for Xbox 360 and PS3.

To celebrate, they're offering a double xp long weekend, starting now and running until the wee hours of Wednesday morning (2:30am Adelaide time, which is 10am Tuesday June 16th, PST). What are you waiting for? Jump into Corrosion, Sub Pens, Banzai ...and, of course, Shi No Numa (Zombie Swamp)! (...we've even got a new video for you if you need more convincing!)

Mark Lamia, Studio Head of Treyarch explains:
"We are thrilled with the ongoing support from Call of Duty: World at War's online community. To the millions of fans enlisted for battle, we can't wait for you to play what we have been working on with our new competitive multiplayer maps, and our latest co-op Zombie map, that reveals some exciting surprises!"
In case you'd missed it, here's a rundown (with pictures!) of what Map Pack 2 brings to Call of Duty: World at War.

Banzai

Deep in the jungles of Japanese controlled territory, players will battle to control the tall river bridge in "Banzai," a bright, medium-sized jungle map featuring a stunning waterfall, villages and hidden caves well suited for deadly snipers, surprise attacks and all out gun battles.
Corrosion

In "Corrosion," players will face down the enemy in a deteriorated Russian train yard. Shattered pipelines and war torn train cars decorate this mid-sized map and are great for full-out team combat. Beware, because the enemy could be anywhere!
Sub Pens

"Sub Pens" drops players into a close-quarter abandoned Japanese submarine base that's littered with live ammunition, breached subs and idle fighter planes. Monsoon rains will be a factor as teams struggle to control key choke points in this tight map designed for exciting and deadly battles.
Shi No Numa (Zombie Swamp)

In this addition to the four-player co-op favorite, the un-ending Zombie horde requires players to keep moving, moving, moving! Imperial Zombies rise from the misty swamps and flaming Hell Hounds blaze through the jungle as players struggle to stick together. The situation is bleak, but there is help on the way: new traps to keep the undead out (the deadly Flogger), a zip line for quick escapes, and best of all, a new weapon: The Wunderwaffe DG-2. The DG-2, aka "The Lightning Gun" is the pinnacle of secret Nazi technology. Packed with 200,000 amperes of devastating chained electrical current, The Wunderwaffe DG-2 should help even the score and enable players to capture the 10 new Xbox 360 Achievements/PS3 Trophies waiting for them inside the deadly swamp.
The brand new Map Pack 2 for Call of Duty: World at War is currently available on the Xbox Live Marketplace, and should also be on the PlayStation Network - but Treyarch have learned from experience, and add the disclaimer that different regions update the PlayStation Network Store at different times - so your local might not have the new pack just yet. Sit tight - it'll get there!

...for the rest of you - see you in the Swamp!
