"
SOCOM 3: U.S. Navy SEALs Map Packs allows for the millions of
SOCOM fans to experience updated versions of their favorite maps from earlier
SOCOM titles or take on competitors in all-new environments simply by purchasing and downloading the
SOCOM 3 Map Packs from their
SOCOM 3 online account," said Seth Luisi, senior producer, Sony Computer Entertainment America. "With the release of the
SOCOM 3 Map Packs, the
SOCOM franchise will expand with even more online environments, adding to the
SOCOM experience you can only get on PlayStation platforms."
The first SOCOM 3 Map Pack will be available in March 2006, and will feature updated fan favorite SOCOM 3: U.S. Navy SEALs maps After Hours, Last Bastion and Liberation which were previously only available for play by internal hard disk drive (40GB) (for PlayStation 2) owners. These maps have been re-worked to add the latest SOCOM 3 features including multiple game types per map, respawn modes, day and night options and weapon customization. The second and third map packs will follow over the next several months and will feature classic maps from the original title that launched the hit franchise, SOCOM 3: U.S. Navy SEALs, as well as innovative SOCOM 3 maps never before seen for an all-new combat experience.
