Maps fromWorld at Warcan take the player to the cities of Germany, the islands controlled by Japan, and even into the Reichstag. Because of the different settings and play styles each map brings, it might seem difficult to pick a favorite.
23Courtyard
Courtyard takes portions of the campaign Breaking Point, focusing on the courtyard aspect of the level. It pits the Japanese army against the Marine Raiders. While having a wide area in the middle, players are able to snipe down the sides and surprise their enemies.
Despite being able to snipe, players will not have a lot of room for error. This makes this map better for close and medium-ranged fighting. Most of the fighting in this map will occur at the center of the courtyard.
22Seelow
Seelow is one of the maps inWorld at Warthat features tanks. Despite this, it is easy for enemies to ambush a tank and destroy it, either hiding in grass or on the train bridge. This map also pits the Soviet Union against Germany as the Soviets invaded Germany.
There is a bit of an advantage for players on the Soviet side, as the Soviet team has one more tank than the Germans. To make this fair, the German side has buildings and a wheat field players can hide in to ambush the tanks.
21Makin
This map takes a lot of inspiration from the first campaign level of the game. The map allows for players to find an area to snipe, while also finding protection at the huts in the center of the map. With the map taking place at night, it is easier for players to sneak around.

There is also a trail on the side of the map, leading from one spawn point to another. Any player who is lucky enough to sneak through it can ambush enemy snipers and flips the spawns.
20Roundhouse
As the name of the map suggests, it takes place at a roundhouse. It pits the Soviets against the Germans again, allowing players to use tanks to their advantage. With trains scattered around the map, it also offers a good location for snipers.
There is a catwalk that gives one team an advantage over the other. Once a team takes it, it will be a battle to defend it or take it over. With buildings located on the sides and center of the map, players are also able to engage in close-quarter combat.
19Upheaval
Upheaval has a main street area that offers a view for snipers on both sides. Aside from this, there are areas on the side that allow the player to try to ambush their enemies. Houses inside the city offer a location for snipers, with bouncing betties able to be placed above the stairs.
The openness of the map also allows players to use their favorite weapon to defeat enemies – with theMP40 doing great damage. With bushes on the outskirts of the city, players are able to find an area to snipe on both sides of the map.
18Nightfire
Nightfire was added in the first map pack for the game. It allows players to fight through a city at night, offering all types of play styles. With basements and catwalks, players can get the jump on enemies.

Players might also notice a few aspects from the zombie map Der Riese, as the zombie map is based on this multiplayer map.
17Station
The map Station was also added with the first map pack. It takes place at a subway station in Berlin, based on the campaign level Eviction. Players are able to ambush enemies by going through the side tunnels of the station.
By setting up on either side of the station, players are also able to snipe at their enemies. Interestingly, this map was supposed to be included in the original game.
16Makin Day
Makin Day was added to the game through a free update in February of 2009. It is the same map as Makin, just set during the day. Because of this, it may be harder for players to sneak up on their enemies.
Despite being basically the same, it was a nice surprise to be included. Players can spot their enemies easier, making it easier to snipe at them.
15Airfield
Airfield takes place on an… airfield. The map is based on the campaign level Hard Landing and is also the basis of the first zombie map, Nacht Der Untoten. Players can find good areas to snipe, while also being able to sneak up on the enemy spawn.

Players who are daring can run across the middle of the map, dodging sniper shots and anyone who set up a machine gun. Players can also use artillery to their advantage, forcing enemies inside.
14Dome
This map takes place on the Reichstag, pitting Soviets against the defending Germans. There are two sides to the map, with small paths that make mines a common sight. There is also an outside area, allowing for a bit more room.
Dogs will be a huge advantage for anyone who might obtain them. Because of the small size, sniping will be almost impossible to do.
