Ancient Callouts

Ancient is one of the newer additions to CS:GO's Active Duty map pool. It is a bomb defusal map set at an Aztec archaeological site located deep within a rainforest. A notable characteristic of this map is that both of the bombsites are coloured very distinctively: A Site is orange and B Site is pale blue.
