Underpass is a large multiplayer map in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty Online.

Overview

Underpass takes place in the rain, underneath the destroyed remains of a highway overpass. It's a great map for various types of weapons. It has narrow corners that make for unrivaled camping spots and wide curves that can hold devastating firefights. Players must be careful moving around, as it is a perfect map for hiding claymores and staging ambushes. In spectator mode, one can see the rest of the highway, and a large bridge.

Players must also be careful when using killstreaks, as the overpass can make using them difficult.

Trivia

• In a small building in the middle of the map, there is a blue poster on the wall with the word "Roycewicz" and a phone number. Roycewicz is the private the player saves in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in the mission "The Bog". and is a lead member of the Infinity Ward map design team.
• There is a small train depot in this map with Kriegler train cars similar to the ones in the map Derail.
• There is a poster up on many walls advertising a Infinity Ward "Rock Fest" underneath an African-American man with the name "Griggs". and has the Infinity Ward symbol on the top-right corner. This is a possible reference to Staff Sergeant Griggs from Call of Duty 4. Griggs is also the name of an Infinity Ward member.
• There is a teddy bear in a warehouse on the catwalk.
• There is a wall on the map that has "INFIDEL" written on it. On this wall there are also painted pictures of the AK-47 and Al-Asad.
• There is a small banana plant on this map which can't be shot through even with FMJ equipped, similar to Favela.
• Some of the shipping containers have IWCOD written on their doors.
• On the wooden walk on the bridge there is a take out box that has a smiley face and a message that says, "Have a nice day".
• There is a mattress on the ground near the sniping spot at Flag A on the side with no ramp, and the player can jump from the higher floor onto it and not get damaged, much like the mattresses in Afghan.
• Outside the map is a crane reused from Highrise.
• A viral video that recently arose on YouTube was about an elderly lady opening a door when shooting the corners of the door with a certain number of bullets and then throwing a flashbang. The lady would then disappear for a few seconds, come back with a UMP .45 with a Red Dot Sight and Arctic camouflage, and kill the player. However, this has been disproved multiple times.
• Outside of the map is a hidden river with boats from Karachi.
• This map and Storm are the only multiplayer levels in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 to feature rain.
• In some of the shady parts of the map, shiny looking guns, such as the .44 Magnum, may look like a dull grey.
• At the extreme southwest corner of the map beneath the underpass, there is almost no rain at all.
• Care Packages can easily land on the overpass, a trait inherited by the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer map Interchange.
• There are posters that say "Glacier" and depict the Titanic crashing.
