Black Ops 'First Strike' maps headed to PS3 in March

Black Ops First Strike maps headed to PS3 in March

The first Black Ops map pack has already been on Xbox LIVE for over a week, but if you own the game on PS3, know that you'll be getting the 'First Strike' DLC early next month.

Come March 3, the new maps will be released to PSN with the same $15 price tag. Probably a bit later than most prefer, but at least you can stop wondering. As for the PC version, Acti and Treyarch have only stated "later this quarter." Bummer. On the bright side, they're saying a release date should be "announced soon."

If you need a recap, 'First Strike' adds five new maps to the multiplayer, including the 'Ascension' zombie map. The other four drop players into a variety of new and familiar locations, from an abandoned research station called 'Discovery' to the city of 'Kowloon,' an overhaul of the single-player map.
