Major Nelson is reporting that a new bonus map for the Xbox 360 version of Call of Duty 3 is now available free to Xbox Live Gold subscribers via the Xbox Live Marketplace. This time around, the Major gave no ETA as to when Live Silver subscribers can expect to see this bit of content trickle down to them. Here's the dashboard write up for the new map "Champs";
"FREE! “Champs” is an exclusive new multiplayer map that brings CLASSIC Call of Duty infantry-based combat to Port Royal des Champs, a war-torn French farm town. The map’s compact design is perfect for small and medium-sized team games in online, split-screen, and System Link play, or crank up the intensity with 24-player mayhem. A country road snakes across the landscape from a private chateau to a heavily battered cathedral. Vast wheat fields, hidden ravines, and blown-out buildings provide endless tactical opportunities for squads or lone soldiers to flank the enemy with stealth. Experience explosive action like never before in this free Bonus Map!" - MajorNelson.com
Free is always good, so if you've got the game (or plan on picking it up) be sure to download this one.
