Activision has revealed that the third planned and upcoming Content Drop for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be a third new map, Overwatch, which will become available at the end of the month for Premium members of Call of Duty Elite, exclusively to Xbox LIVE.
Starting February 21st on Xbox 360 (and most probably a month later on PlayStation 3), Premium Elite members will be able to download Overwatch, a Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer map that is described thus:
“Overwatch drops you into a construction site atop a New York City skyscraper. The battle takes place along two levels in a near symmetrical layout, with the central bridge and side routes open to attack from multiple angles.
“Watch your every step, as a lack of safety barriers surrounding the perimeter leaves nothing between you and a 70 story fall to the ground below.”
As mentioned, this is the third Content Drop in a planned series of 20 such additions to Modern Warfare 3 that will release from now until September.

Comments:
I wonder why they couldn't just make like 5 larger DLC packs for MW3. they just trying their hardest to try and keep their gamers with them and not lose them to BF3.
Is the other content even available for non-Premium members yet? Me wants!
I'm not a big fan of this approach to DLC distribution. If I was a fan of the games, I would want to get access to new content at the same time as everyone else. I don't want to be punished for not subscribing to a premium service.
I don't think it's yet available to non-Premium Elite members. It's been mentioned that you'll be able to buy the content drops in a pack of DLC later.
