I have the Infested Mines map and have played it multiple times already. So, where is the "Chaos map"?

I've played all maps multiple times and only ever encountered Tyranids. I guess I need to cut back on my meds, damn things causing me to see Chaos as Tyranids. :P

But it is not rly a chaos map with chaos worshippers, there are still Genestealer.

I guess OP means the Chaos Shrine or artefact in the middle of the map.

Chaos artifact in a center of a map.

Yes it is. Verticality. Artwork. Fighting positions. Truly a difficult map to do well on. You gotta bring your A game

Exactly, well totally somekind of demon or Chaos monstrosity is sealed in that artifact, so the miners accidentely found it, if this artifact will be crushed and demon released both nids and term will be fck8d. And the whole Dark Angels chapter will try to destroy it or seal it again.
Also it is the first map in the game where Chaos presented so openly.
Maybe it is not like a free dlc map, but a sign that finally we will have different types of enemies in this game.

That map really deserves credit. Streumon has done a fantastic job. And the game is far from perfect - I would have many things to say. BUT: what a great map design and a beautifully crafted environment!
Choke points, several defensive positions, themed areas, verticality indeed, nasty angles, offensive opportunities, deadly hub you learn to fear, etc.
It's also a fun challenge on high difficulty in Special Missions as getting from A to B can be difficult due to blocked paths.
You'll progress under constant pressure, trying to stay alive while fighting your way to the objectives.

With a well coordinated group, that map alone is extremely fun and the right kind of punishing.

Total agree! SHDW is far from a great game (I still hope and wait for some day we'll see all the cosmetics stuffs such as banneers and bionets becoming usefull and we'll be able to find out a little loot through the maps...) but praised be the devs for such a good map. Hope others will follow.

If there's one thing the devs excel at, it's level design and graphics.

This. The new map is great for these reasons.
