This was known for a while :)

Nacht Der Untoten- Literally translates to "Night of the Undead," but was probably intended to mean 'Night of the Living Dead" like the movie.

Verruckt- "Verruckt" is German for "Crazy."

Shi No Numa- Japanese for "Swamp of Death" or "Death's Swamp."

Der Riese- "Der Riese" is German for "The Giant." The name seen on the side of the building, "Waffenfabrik Der Riese," means "Weapons Factory of the Giant."

Kino Der Toten- German for "Theater of the Dead," or "Theater of the Damned," as Richtofen says in the map's intro.

I hope this helped.

Actually, Kino der Toten is "Cinema of the Dead" or "Movie theater of the Dead." Theater Der Toten would be Theater of the Dead.

And Verruckt can be Crazy, insane, or asylum. I don't know if it's context, or whatever, but this just shows my German basics.

And then you have:

Ascension - The map has a rocket which launches or 'Ascends'.

Call of the Dead: The map features George Romero who directed the films 'Night of the Living Dead', 'Dawn of the Dead' and 'Day of the Dead' and he is directing the film in this map called 'Call of the Dead', the Call probably comes from 'Call of Duty'.

Shangri-La: The place where the map is set, the legendary Buddhist city. Also known as Shambala.

Moon: It's on the moon...

Obvious, but hey I thought i'd post anyway.

Yes, but when referring to a cinema, do you say "cinema?" No, you say "theater," right? Even Richtofen said, "Theater of the Damned."

Germans do. Hence, kino, or cinema. Direct translation is Cinema. That is all I mean. They would say cinema, we would say movie theater.

Well some people say theater and cinema if they are referring to different things.

For example, theater could be like a play or something

cinema is cinematography so movie and film.

Kino is both, because they had a projector, so movie and film, but also had stage props, so that would mean it could be a theatre too.
