10 Best Multiplayer Maps In Call Of Duty: Black Ops History

10. Contraband

A launch map for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Contraband is easily one of the best looking multiplayer arenas ever released under the CoD banner. Featuring both a lush jungle section and a beautiful run of ruins set atop some pristine, vibrant turquoise water, Contraband is an absolute feast for the eyes.

While it’s yet another variation on Treyarch’s tried-and-true three lane setup, the map features just enough variation to remain interesting during the ten to twenty minutes it takes to play through a match. While certain sight lines near the bridge in the center of the map can be a headache, it’s definitely an enjoyable locale.

A mid-sized map, Contraband is sizable enough to accommodate almost all modes and styles of play. Hardpoint is typically a little weird here, though the placement of the B flag in domination always makes for some hectic gameplay.

It isn’t a universally beloved map—few are, of course—but it was a standout among Bo4’s anemic launch lineup. The much-hated advanced movement mechanics may be gone, but that doesn’t mean that multiplayer map design has necessarily improved, and there are a good number of duds packed on the disc.
