It has been nearly two months since Microsoft unleashed Halo 3 to the Xbox 360 gamers. Now it has emerged that three all-new multiplayer maps will be released next month for the game. The Heroic Map Pack is the first in a series of downloadable content from Bungie Studios for Halo 3.
About Halo 3 Heroic Map Pack:
- Standoff’s symmetrical valley, with its entrenched bases and fields of boulders is ideal for mid-sized objective and Slayer game types, while Rat’s Nest’s vast, labyrinthine passages bring something new to the “Halo” multiplayer experience: an indoor vehicle paradise, strongly influenced by the Campaign mode, ideal for big team battles. Finally, Foundry is the ultimate Forge map – players can edit every single object in this voluminous industrial warehouse, place stairways, walls, bridges and tunnels to create an entirely new play space and build almost any kind of map they can think of.
The Heroic Map Pack for Halo 3 will release on December 11, 2007. It will be available to download via the Xbox Live Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points. However, gamers who want the Halo 3 map pack for free will have to wait till Spring 2008. That’s when Microsoft will offer it for free as the next wave of all new “Halo 3” multiplayer maps will be available then.
