The wait was incredibly long, but the Nuketown 2025 map finally came to Call of Duty: Black Ops II on Wii U yesterday. That might not be the only piece of new content heading to the game.

IGN spotted the Die Rise in Black Ops II’s menus, though it hasn’t actually been added just yet. We’ll have to wait and see if it ends up being accessible.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II launched for Wii U in November 2012. Nearly two years later, the game has received a new map.

Nuketown 2025 has been out on other platforms for a very, very long time. Just recently though, it seems that the content finally came to Wii U. Players can obtain Nuketown 2025 by installing an update on their console.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Activision gave Neversoft the go-ahead to create a sequel to Gun, but the studio was forced to drop the project due to a lack of manpower. Former president Joel Jewitt told Game Informer this month that it would have been impossible for the studio to take on Gun 2 in addition to another skateboarding title.

He said:

“(Neversoft) had a bunch of guys that fought really hard over on the Activision side and we got the sequel approved, and then we more or less had to make the call over here that we couldn’t do it for business reasons. We just didn’t have the manpower to make [Gun 2] and another skateboarding game. We had to take our engine to the next level, because we were [moving to] the Xbox 360. We had to put everybody back on the [Tony] Hawk franchises.”

The first and only Gun game launched in 2005. It ended up on several platforms, including the GameCube.

Activision has announced another new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game for 3DS, developed by Magic Pockets. It will be available on August 8, in time for the release of Paramount Pictures’ film of the same name.

Here’s an official overview:

Mad genius Baxter Stockman’s mutant and robotic horrors have teamed up with the shadowy armies of the Foot Clan to terrorize New York City, and only Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo and Donatello can protect its subways, sewers, rooftops and streets from their devastating campaign.

This Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles title is a third-person action game with fast-moving hack-and-slash gameplay. Players will be able to swap between the four main characters at any time. Each turtle has its own strengths and skills based on their personality, ranging from Mikey’s speed to Raph’s brute force. The game also lets players evolve in power over time by gaining new levels, abilities and stat points. New weapons can be crafted back at the Turtle’s Lair from raw materials collected throughout the adventure.
