Halo 3 Gets 3 New Maps with ODST
July 9, 2009 by srfto
Word is out!! ODST’s offering of new Halo 3 maps has surely jinxed up things a little bit. The Halo developer’s have gone ahead and released three new screenshots and details of the maps that would be shipping out along with ODST. Halo 3: ODST introduces a new cooperative multiplayer mode called Firefight which allows “Halo” fans to experience co-operative gaming in a whole new way. The three new maps are Heretic, Citadel and Longshore. Here’s Bungie’s Blurb:
Heretic returns players to familiar ground as the “Halo 2″ arena Midship makes its long-rumored debut in “Halo 3.” The stark interior of the Pious Inquisitor might appear austere on first glance, but Heretic’s symmetrical spaces require players to execute complex strategies in order to outplay their opponents.
Citadel may be a long abandoned Forerunner stronghold, but its small, symmetrical confines are far from secure. Two opposing bases offer little safety for players looking for solace. Instead, Citadel forces small squads to stay in constant communication, keep their heads on a swivel, and be prepared to adjust combat tactics in close quarters.
Longshore lacks the commercial ships that once made it a lucrative port for Old Mombasa, but it still bustles with activity. Designed for large scale combat and well suited for smaller affairs, Longshore’s multitude of industrial buildings, elevated walks, and open inlets conspire to create a complex battleground tailored for multiple combat scenarios.
Scheduled to launch later this year, Bungie’s latest entry in the epic space hoop saga will include a Halo 3 multiplayer disc, which will contain these three new maps that you have been waiting for, (in addition to all the ones you’ve come to love and die repeatedly in). So buckle up and get your weapons ready for this new action experience.
“Halo 3: ODST” will have a suggested retail price of $59.99, with a Collector’s Edition controller bundle for $99.99
