Master the Aftermath map in Call of Duty: Black Ops II with our comprehensive guide. Discover objective locations for CTF, Demolition, Domination, Hardpoint, Headquarters, and Search & Destroy, plus suggested loadouts.
Aftermath is a symmetrical map set after a drone attack. Teams spawn on the East and West sides. The East spawn features a Parking Garage to the North, a Crater to the South, and a Parking Office building in the center. The West spawn has a Canteen building to the North and a two-tiered building to the South with an open Bookstore on the upper walkway. The map's center is dominated by a fallen skyscraper, with its intact Lobby beneath the rubble to the North and a large Debris Field to the South. The Lobby connects to the Parking Garage and Canteen, offering direct access between bases. The Debris Field provides tunnels, passages, and vantage points through the map's center. An indoor Office area in the Northwest corner of the Debris Field contains an elevator shaft to the Lobby and a vantage point overlooking the Canteen. A Road runs along the far South of the map, mostly straight with some obstacles, and offers an entrance to the Debris Field at its center.
