EA has today sprung a surprise by releasing five new maps for Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars on Xbox Live.
They are available now for 500 points.
Description:
Maps: Tournament Desert Redux - A remake of the small Generals map described as "like having a knife fight in a closet".
Tiber River Valley: This features two strategic options - either the easier but wide open southern route to the enemy’s base, or the intense northern pass littered with blue tiberium and an EMP control center.
Tiberium Gardens III: another remake of a classic C&C map, featuring lots of tiberium.
Blacks Bigger Battle: an enormous four-player variation of an existing map - perfect for just about any strategic manoeuvre is in there too.
Frontier Fracas: the asymmetrical four-player map which is great for a defensive 2v2 stand-off, rounds things out.
Also available on Live Marketplace is a Factions picture pack for 80 points, a free interview based around the new map pack, and a free insider’s tour around the new scenarios with helpful strategy hints and tips.
It looks like there is more to come though as EALA told IGN "This is only the beginning of our plan to extend Command & Conquer 3 through premium downloadable content, and without going into too many details, I will tell you that there are plans for other add-ons that will have other focuses, where additional achievements will be a more natural fit."
