Next Thusday the 'Variety Map Pack' will be released in conjunction with the next CoD4 patch, 1.6 and more good news, thanks to a partnership with nVidia it will be free to download.
The map pack will include 4 new maps, Chinatown, set in a street block somewhere in downtown China, Creek which looks similiar to the current map Overgrown, Broadcast, which looks to be the most promising map in the release in my opinion and finally Killhouse set in a huge warehouse.
Although there was much anticipation about a version of Valve's SourceTV it has not yet been announced whether 'CoDTV' will be included in this update, however according to Infinity Ward's fourzerotwo "...expect to see quite a few promotions popping up leading up to the launch of the map packs on the 5th and beyond. I know NVIDIA has a lot of great things planned for PC users in addition to maps becoming available." As to what exactly these 'additions' may be, for the moment we can't do much but wait.
As for the 1.6 patch, which will be released as a separate download, various updates include the obvious support for new maps, fix a server crash exploit recently discovered and a "few additional features/bug fixes."
Full notes will be released next week. Here is a taster of the map pack that was released to consoles a few months ago.
