BO1 was a great time for Treyarch. Now that we know they use old maps for testing on new games and Kino was originally on WAW, we can connect a few dots as to why we got such a great package.
They had time to make Ascension because Kino was already half made from WAW, then they used the OG maps as tests, and the process went so good that we ended up getting them in the full game.
Not many remember this, but if you got the Hardened Edition of BO1, you could get the WAW maps on the November launch (technically 6 maps altogether if you count Kino and FIVE, such an amazing deal). The rest had to wait until the Rezurrection pack in the summer when it was Bundled with Moon as one of the only ever Zombies only DLC packs (this was years before Chronicles).

It blows my mind that we’ve been getting early builds like this. There has to be an alpha version of Tranzit.

Man I was wondering a month or so back with all the BO2 DLC 5 stuff if we’d ever see this build of WaW. Crazy that it still exists

Interesting. I always had a crackpot theory that it was going to reuse the Reichstag from campaign. The concept art for the stage had a similar looking layout.

Either the person who made this video is a dev (could've come across a dev kit maybe), or they got the screenshots from here. There are other maps here as well, including Nacht (found on the main COD zombies page on their website), Verruckt and Der Riese pre-release, you can find the map specific pages here:
