Plaza

Plaza is a Call of Duty: Black Ops II multiplayer map, one of the maps included with the base game at launch, released on November 13, 2012. It is set in Floating luxury resort, Indian Ocean. A mid-sized, symmetrical floating resort with tight corners and angles throughout.

How Plaza plays

On the ground, Plaza is defined by symmetrical layout, tight corners and nightclub interior and man-made floating island. Those are the features to read first — they decide where fights open up, which angles are safe to hold, and how you rotate between objectives. The close, broken-up terrain favours mobile weapons — submachine guns and shotguns — and perks like Lightweight and Dexterity that keep you quick through its lanes.

Hazards & features to learn:

• Symmetrical layout
• Tight corners and nightclub interior
• Man-made floating island

Build a class for it with the Pick-10 system, and browse the full weapon list to match a gun to its ranges.
