The Lighthouse is in the bottom corner of the map, there’s also Asylum itself and there’s also the Boxing Ring and the Diner.
The Lighthouse is from the Black Ops map Call of the Dead, while Asylum goes back even further to World at War, where it was the main fixture on the Verruckt map.
The Boxing Ring was in Shadows of the Damned from Black Ops 3 and played an important part in solving the map’s Easter Egg. Rounding out the trilogy is the Diner from Black Ops 2.
