Tomorrow will see the launch of the second pack of for Activision's sleeper hit Transformers: War for Cybertron.

The Character and Map Pack 2 will add two more playable characters as well as five new maps for the game's modes.

Zeta Prime and Dead End are the new characters that will be playable in all multiplayer modes.

The new maps add two Escalation levels; the Autobot map Pulse which is set inside the huge Decepticon Trypticon and Static, a Decepticon level which lays out a labyrinth of multi-leveled rooms filled with traps for Megatron's minions to make use of.

The other three maps are for the competitive multiplayer modes. They are Horizon, an urban battlefield overlooking the Autobot city of Iacon, Sector, an old Decepticon maintenance facility and Metropolis set high up on one of the towering skyscrapers of Iacon.
