Infinity Ward’s Community Manager ZeroTwo Four has updated his blog with word that PlayStation 3 users will be getting the variety Map Pack next week. Along with the Map Pack, PS3 players will also be able to reap the rewards of a double XP weekend like the 360 players enjoyed a week ago. Here’s the official word:

“I have some great PS3 news for everyone! We have hammered out the details for the upcoming DLC and will be releasing the new Variety Map Pack on PS3 in North America on Thursday, April 24. In addition, we’re also really excited that the Map Pack passed Sony Europe certification and will be propped on the PlayStation Network on May 1.



To celebrate the release of both map packs we 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. North American players 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.”
