These maps are priced at $1 (80 MS Points) each and will take players to High Seas Fortress, Catacombs and Rail Yard. They sound like a refreshing change of pace for mercenaries who are used to being paid for traveling to distant locales and commit murders - instead you can now pay for the right to travel and murder.

Siliconera has a wealth of information about the canceled game from an inside source, who was working on the project before its reported demise.

Catacombs sounds like it was a mix of team-based shooters like Left 4 Dead, mixed with the loot-whoring of Borderlands, and Diablo's randomly generated maps. Players would have guns, spells and magic rings to level up as they attempted to reach the elevator on each floor and escape to the surface.

According to the source, Square Enix planned to reveal the game at last year's E3, but that clearly never happened. The source claims Catacombs was far along and playable, but is unsure whether Square Enix will complete the title.
