SOCOM 4: Multiplayer Map First Looks
Posted by Jeremy Dunham, Senior Community Manager, Zipper Interactive Video SOCOM 4
Today’s the day that players who nabbed SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy SEALs beta vouchers in copies of Killzone 3 or at PAX East 2011 can now redeem their access codes! In celebration, we wanted to give you a sneak peek at two SOCOM 4 multiplayer maps that haven’t really been seen outside of Zipper Interactive yet – Von Heine Express and Cesspool!

Von Heine Express was actually one of the last MP maps we finished; the idea behind it was to create an environment that captured the spirit of our classic SOCOM II map, Fox Hunt, but built on the themes of SOCOM 4 and made for great sniping scenarios. Set on the coast of Southeast Asia in a makeshift military base that comes complete abandoned train cars, Von Heine Express is a favorite here at Zipper and has only been seen publicly once – at PAX East 2011 where it was part of that event’s SOCOM 4 Championship Tournament. Check out the video below for a flythrough!

Another map that we’re happy to unveil is Cesspool. Cesspool was one of the earliest MP maps developed for SOCOM 4 and it came about because of how much we loved the thematic from our “Means to an End” single-player mission. Set about half-way through the game, “Means to an End” takes place in a city slum currently under siege by the insurgents lead by SOCOM 4 antagonist, General Razad. That SP mission was only an inspiration, though, and Cesspool was created entirely from scratch and is excellent for close-quarters combat-oriented players. Check it out for yourself in the video below.

While these two maps aren’t available in the beta, you’ll be able to experience Von Heine Express, Cesspool and seven other multiplayer maps for yourself when SOCOM 4 hits stores across North America on April 19. Of course, competitive multiplayer isn’t all SOCOM 4 has to offer, as it also includes our robust 14-mission cinematic solo campaign and our five-player custom-campaign cooperative missions as well.

If you can’t wait until April 19, you can always download our current SOCOM 4 multiplayer beta, which is already available to PlayStation Plus and the voucher folks mentioned above starting April 5!

Von Heine Express reminds me of Valor's Sabotage map more than Foxhunt. It might be fun, but quick pop snipers will probably ruin it.

Cesspool reminds me of a Raven map. It is either Acquisition or Domination, but it has similar slums on one side. It also reminds me of Sujo, so it should be an interesting map. All in all they look more fun than the beta maps.
