Halo 5: Guardians MP Will Launch With Over 20 Maps, DLC Will Be Free

4.7
Newly surfaced Halo 5: Guardians details suggest that a healthy offering of both vanilla and DLC multiplayer maps will keep Halo fans on Xbox One busy for quite some time this Fall and into 2016.

According to an exclusive Halo 5: Guardians preview provided by GameInformer in their latest July Issue, revealed by user shinobi602 on NeoGAF , the game will launch with over 20 multiplayer maps and will provide another 15 downloadable ones by June 2016. The kicker is that all maps are said to be free of charge, which will ensure a non-fragmented multiplayer community after any DLC launch.

In addition, developer 343 Industries has plans to reveal a “completely new, epic multiplayer experience” next week at E3 2015 that aims to incorporate “all aspects of the Halo sandbox for the first time ever.” 343 describes it as a “dream of ours and all our fans to build something like this.”

Additional details are under wraps, but we’ll certainly find out more soon. Microsoft’s media briefing begins at 9:30 AM Pacific this coming Monday, June 15.

7yle_Jr Played Halo 3 a few times years back, didn't enjoy it but I know many people have loved this game. I don't understand the big hype around Halo all these years...


I don't understand the hype either, Advanced warfare is basically halo now


Statements like this show that you have no idea what you are talking about. People just throw together a few vague similarities and two games are the "same". I'm fans of both of the series and one thing I know for sure was that Halo should have died with 3. They hyped it up as the last game way too much to continue the series. All the halos since 3 have been garbage.

Advanced Warfare are not similar in any way. If your only point of comparison is the Exo suites or the jumping, then every game that lets you jump stole from Mario. Which by you logic makes every games basically Mario.


Please go say this about all the haters saying BO3 is just a Halo, Titanfall, AW remake.. Because honestly I don't see any similarities to any of the games, I mean their concept is different. Yes there is some similarities but there's only so much you can do with a futuristic game without going overboard


i sitll say they need to bring out something that isn;t in the future.

GearzyTV DLC? Oh you mean that day 1 stuff that should have been included on the disc before release date.


It's free, so what's the difference?


I think the fact that theyre making out theyre doing something good when really they should have released it when the game came out like they said they were going to....that's the difference

Smore_Dynammix I dont understand how people can be excited for Halo 5. Halo died after reach came out and 343 wasnt able to revive with MCC so they turned Halo completely the opposite of what it should be by adding jetpacks, superjumps, sprint. This is not Halo and I dont believe new Halos should be made anymore because it is ruining the name of what was created when Halo CE- Halo 3 came out as one of the greatest FPS ever. RIP old Halos :'(


That`s what i`m saying man, that is also what they are doing with cod as well.


All they see is a way to make easy money, and that's the sad thing about game companies nowadays.

Nice to see DLC being free. I won't be getting this game but DLC should be free. Hopefully other games will follow on this.
