First MW3 Maps Hit PS3 Call of Duty Elite Premium Members 2/28

[PS3 News]

Activision Social Media Manager Dan Amrich has confirmed today that the first MW3 Maps will be hitting PS3 Call of Duty Elite Premium Members on February 28, 2012 with details outlined below.

To quote: It's going to be a long year - and that's a good thing. While Modern Warfare 3 has occupied a lot of time in the drives of a lot of PS3 owners since its November release, there is more content to come over the next several months.

And if you're a premium member of Call of Duty Elite, you're going to get your first two tastes of that content on February 28th.

While the content season will contain more than 20 items overall - some multiplayer maps, some game modes, and some Spec Ops missions - the first two pieces of content in the season are a Call of Duty player's bread and butter: multiplayer maps.

The seaside village of Piazza is a perfect battleground for fans of close-quarters combat; the sharp corners, tight corridors, and stone staircases all offer compelling examples of why the word "paranoia" is the same in English and Italian.

Liberation offers more room to run, but it's no less deadly. Enjoy the beautiful foliage, romantic footbridges, and brutal explosions as you attack the enemy centrally located park in Manhattan. Snipers will find their perches, but sneaky players will enjoy the underground passage and ample ambush cover options.

The first two maps will arrive for Call of Duty Elite premium members first on February 28th, with more content to come over the nine months that follow.

If you're an Elite premium member, you'll get a message at the MW3 multiplayer menu as soon as the content is available to download; from there, just select Store from the multiplayer menu and the downloads will be yours at no additional charge. It's part of the whole Elite premium package. If you want in, the details are http://www.callofduty.com/elite/go-premium.

It won't be long now before we see each other in Italy and New York. Ciao, buddy.

Well that sucks, I don't see why you have to be a premium member to get an extra map. It's not that bad though if "normal" members get the maps a month later or $1.99 for it.
