Infinity Ward’s Community Manager, Robert Bowling (aka "Fourzerotwo") has released details about the Call of Duty 4 Variety Map Pack release for the PS3.  The new maps will be released in North America on Thrusday, April 24.  PS3 owners in Europe shouldn’t feel left out either.  Sony Europe gave the map pack a passing grade as well, so it will be available there on May 1. 

In addition, to celebrate the release of the map pack, Infinity Ward will be hosting a Double XP weekend for North America from 12:01 AM PDT on Friday, April 25 to 11:59 PM PDT on Sunday, April 27.  Players in North America will be able to play the new maps against members of the Infinity Ward team on Friday, April 25 from 5 PM to 8 PM PDT.  Game on!
