Video: Uncharted 3 New PS3 Multiplayer Map Pack Incoming

[PS3 News]

Naughty Dog Community Strategist Eric Monacelli announced today that a new Uncharted 3 New Drake's Deception PS3 Multiplayer Map Pack is incoming and will arrive on Tuesday with some video footage below.

To quote: You camped out on your favorite ledges to earn the kickoff medal on the Highrise and Yemen maps. You've mastered sniping fools that run carelessly through the Desert Village and Airstrip.

You've perfected your ninja stealth kills in the secluded nooks and crannies of the London Underground and City of Brass. Okay, maybe you haven't perfected any of that yet.

Maybe you're just looking for something different and new. Whether you're a rugged UNCHARTED 3 multiplayer fortune hunter or a causal explorer, this trailer should get you amped for Tuesday's new multiplayer map pack.

Four all-new UNCHARTED 3 multiplayer maps will be available for download on Tuesday, April 10th on PS Store. The Graveyard map sets you in motion as you fight among ships and shipping crates on rolling waves.

Old Quarter seems like a lovely scene on a cool Yemen night, but it's full of dangerous alleys and dimly lit rooms. The bar, the back alleys and the broadways of the London Streets map offer some prime spots for a knock-down, drag-out turf war, so be sure to stop by the Pelican Inn for some more brawling.

The Oasis map used to provide respite for a Bedouin camp, but now serves as a sun-drenched battlefield for your multiplayer matches.

We put a lot of love and polish into each map, including new dynamic events that occurs as the match progresses. In Graveyard, a patrol boat will circle the border and launch grenades. In Oasis, a passing plane will drop a shipping crate that can flatten you (or your enemy!) if you don't make way.

If you're smart enough to stay out of the crate' shadow, you may score the power weapon that resides inside. London Street and Old Quarter contain dynamic events as well... but we want to leave you a couple big surprises, don't we?

Standalone, this new map pack will cost $9.99. If you're already a member of the Fortune Hunters' Club this collection of maps cost you only the initial price of joining the club - just log into your PSN account and you can download the Drake's Deception Map Pack for free.

If you still haven't become a member of the Fortune Hunters' Club, you'll have until the PS Store updates on April 17th, 2012 to join in the action. In just 12 days, the Fortune Hunters' Club will shut its doors.

Joining the FHC costs $24.99, saving you more than 60% on 14 packs of UNCHARTED 3 DLC. If you're game for that much UNCHARTED 3 goodness, buy the FHC today by clicking the icon below, or visiting the PS Store or the in-game UNCHARTED 3 PS store.

While the Fortune Hunters' Club is shutting its doors, this doesn't mean the DLC for UNCHARTED 3 will stop. For starters, for those of you itching for new play types and experimental modes, The Lab will make its return to UNCHARTED multiplayer.

We'll be talking with and polling you in our forums about various potential ideas we have for the future of UNCHARTED 3 multiplayer, so be sure to join in our community and voice your opinion.

And stay hungry, as we will have additional news about future DLC and other plans for UNCHARTED 3 multiplayer in an upcoming blog post.

For now, let's hit the new maps and see if you sink or swim. See you online!

It's a good thing they're still making MP maps for this game, I can't imagine too many people playing the game though. The combat is kind of boring imo, maybe these maps will add more excitement though.
