12 Best FPS Multiplayer Maps Of All Time

By Robert Zak /

1. Facing Worlds - Unreal Tournament

First playing this map back in 1999 was literally an out-of-this-world experience. Online multiplayer was just getting started, and maps until that point were mostly confined to claustrophobic little arenas. ...And then Facing Worlds came along. The map was a carved meteor with two formidable towers facing each other. The Earth, moon, and void of deep dark space made up the background, giving it a sense of grandiosity like no map before it (and frankly, few maps to this day). The music too was mesmerising - a spacey, drum n' bass-filled tone that gave the level an almost tranquil quality; a strange way to feel after you've just blasted five peoples' heads apart with a sniper rifle from the top of one of the towers. A truly beautiful Capture The Flag map, and landmark piece of online shooter design.
