Activision has released screens and details for the next Modern Warfare 3 map drop, hitting Xbox Live on 21st February. As ever, you'll need to be one of those smugface Premium Elite members to grab the goods.
According to the blurb, Overwatch "drops you into a construction site atop a New York City skyscraper. The battle takes place along two levels in a near symmetrical layout, with the central bridge and side routes open to attack from multiple angles. Watch your every step, as a lack of safety barriers surrounding the perimeter leaves nothing between you and a 70 story fall to the ground below."
Non-paying Elite users will find the map in the first Modern Warfare 3 Content Collection, dated for March. Hit this link for a rough MW3 DLC release calendar.

Really? Smacks abit of "Highrise" from MW2 surely, why do people pay for this re-hashed crap?

Cool - another new map! Disappointed its only 1 and we only get 12!!! At least it will add to the Elite play list. Annoyed that there isn't more play modes for these maps and also the lack of plying 'Survival' mode with them too (I thought they would ALL be available for 'Survival' mode)
It does remind me a bit of 'High Rise'. Unfortunately the screen shots do not give much away as to the overall size and layout so difficult to see how it will play. 'Piazza' and 'Liberation' are 2 very different maps and favour a different style of play so will be interesting to see where this map fits in with those 2. I am glad that it is an 'ALL NEW' map too as I can play all the other maps on previous titles
