[Editor's Note: When we visited Sledgehammer Games, the map was known as "Venus." Since that time, it has been renamed to "Retreat." So when you hear it referred to as "Venus" in the video, we are actually talking about "Retreat." Apologies for any confusion this may cause.]

As we kick off IGN's month-long coverage of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare , Sledgehammer Games Lead Multiplayer Designer Greg Reisdorf walks us through a newly revealed map, dubbed "Retreat." Dig the pretty scenery, and study up so you've got an advantage on your online opponents come November. And don't miss all of our month-long Call of Duty coverage, which will be continually updated here
