New Halo 4 multiplayer map revealed

4.8
343 Industries has unveiled a new Halo 4 multiplayer map; Longbow.

The snow-themed arena was built with the purpose of accommodating Halo 4's new and unannounced game modes, the developer revealed on Halo Waypoint.
"From Sidewinder to Containment to Snowbound to Avalanche, Halo has a long multiplayer map history speckled with various virtual snow-filled expanses," the studio wrote. "That history continues into Halo 4 with Longbow.

"Longbow supports both infantry and vehicle play. On foot, players will notice it's mostly a mid-to-long range map with pockets of close range combat in and around the base structures.

"However, there are plenty of vehicles (currently Warthogs, Mongooses, and Ghosts) and routes through the map that will make fans of vehicular combat happy."

Elsewhere in its latest community update, 343 reveals development on the Halo sequel is entering the final stages.

"The Campaign for Halo 4 is playable from start to finish, with some levels being near complete and others still needing some good, old-fashioned elbow grease (in the form of polish and bug bashing).

"The first several weeks of Spartan Ops find themselves in a similar state, as do the ten multiplayer maps that are shipping with the game."

Looks like its just about time to clear some old games. Not that anyone cares but instill have like 290 on mine


Lucky you! Mine's only a 60GB hard-drive.. It's a premium but they stopped making them about 2 years back :o


That's still quite a bit of space.
