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.

Arzua That's pretty cool of them, but I'm not a fan of Halo.


I stopped being a fan after reach honestly. It is good to hear about this but meh


Its good that they give out free DLC but i think the game is terrible but that's just me :/

Cyimking Hopefully all games will adapt to this sort of thing and release free DLC for their games.


That would be great but then the games themselves would increase in price.


I wouldn't mind paying 10gbp extra for a game for free dlc :P
its 12gbp for 1 map pack on cod but i guess that's what the season pass is for so they can make more money

ProJimmyRustler I find it funny that even though MCC was a total crapfest, people praise 343 for releasing free DLC.

How can flashing free DLC make you forget that you got ripped of $60?


Never forget, and never forgive. I'm probably not even going to get Halo 5 until they fix MCC.


Isn't MMC fixed yet? oh my god... I haven't played it in months and thought it would be fixed by now...

Not interested. Halo is dead and if you disagree with me you are 13 and didn't play through it's golden years.
