Treyarch Studios recently took to social media to tease the remake of fan-favourite, iconic multiplayer map Nuketown which will feature in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. This Russian variant of the map will, at first, be exclusive to those with the Black Ops Pass before later being made public, for free, for everyone to play. If it wasn't clear enough that the sign is that of Nuketown's, Treyarch followed up the mysterious Russian text with a hashtag.
Check out their tweet below:
The snowy environment, red star, and Russian text confirms rumours that the remake will be set in Russia - though, as for rumours that it's set within Chernobyl, we'll just have to wait and see. The tweet itself roughly translates to “Visit US again … For the first time here."
This will be the fifth time that Nuketown has been remade - meaning the map's sixth appearance overall. Obviously beginning with the original map in Call of Duty: Black Ops, it was remade as a Zombies map in Black Ops 2 as well as given a futuristic makeover in multiplayer. It was again remade, with a futuristic setting, in Black Ops 3. And Black Ops 4's new Blackout mode features a ton of old fan-favourite maps, Nuketown being one of them.
What do you think of the teaser image? Are you looking forward to Nuketown's fifth remake?
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 releases on October 12th for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
