News: Activision releases a new “CODnapped” video in preparation for the Call of Duty Ghosts Onslaught DLC which will be released next week.

With the Onslaught DLC hitting Call of Duty Ghosts next week on Xbox 360 and Xbox One Activision has released a new “CODnapped” video for you to enjoy. The CODnapper and his team of associates rescue unsuspecting fans from their ‘to do’ lists and everyday chores and deliver them to an oasis known as Onslaught, the first downloadable content pack available for Call of Duty: Ghosts.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with this new downloadable content for Call of Duty Ghosts, a brief description of the new maps is below:

Fog - A small to medium sized map set alongside the banks of a murky lake. Every area within “Fog” is a chilling homage to classic horror films, from an eerie campsite, flickering TVs, torture chamber, and seemingly abandoned structures as players try to unlock the map’s dark secret. If a player happens to find and complete a specific Field Order, they become the embodiment of evil and don the persona of one of cinema’s most iconic horror characters, Michael Meyers. Additionally, the entire soundscape changes to the eerily familiar Halloween theme music so other players know to run for their lives.

Bayview - A close quarters map set on a coastal California boardwalk packed with seaside gift stores and an aquarium, offering players fast-paced run-and-gun matches. Players must also be wary of the deadly artillery strike enemies can call in from a Naval Destroyer anchored just offshore.

Containment - This map is in a war torn Mexican village, where the battle rages along both banks of the dried out riverbed. The action in this compact map centers on the remains of a small bridge holding a hijacked truck filled with leaking radioactive material. Surrounded by a myriad of abandoned bars, cafes, a church and a pool hall, “Containment” also features elevated rooftop vantage points for players who prefer longer-range environments.

Ignition - This map launches players into an aging Florida space launch facility. Inspired by “Scrapyard” from Modern Warfare 2, “Ignition” has plenty of action both above and below ground amongst abandoned warehouses, flame trenches, and a massive transport crawler. As if rockets crash landing into the map weren’t enough, the close quarters combat is further complicated via two separate rocket test engine sites that opposing forces can trigger, sending massive fireballs into the already intense firefights, and the failed launch of a massive rocket has a dramatic effect on the combat.

Take a look at the video below and tell us what you think. The Call of Duty Ghosts Onslaught DLC is available first on Xbox One and Xbox 360 with it hitting other platforms at a later late. Do you plan on picking it up?
