Three Halo 3: ODST maps revealed News

Xbox 360 News by Oli Welsh

8 July, 2009

Bungie has revealed the final three new multiplayer maps that will be included with Halo 3: ODST this September. They're called Heretic, Citadel and Longshore and you can see screenshots in our brand new gallery.

Heretic is in fact a new version of Halo 2's Midship map, set on the Covenant ship the Pious Inquisitor. Citadel is a confined, symmetrical room in a Forerunner stronghold with two opposing bases and little cover. Longshore is an Old Mombasa port area designed for complex, large scale combat, bristling with industrial buildings and elevated walkways.

Halo 3: ODST will be released for Xbox 360 on 22nd September, and includes the new Firefight co-op mode and all Halo 3 multiplayer maps to date, alongside an entirely new campaign starring the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers of the title. More at the ODST gamepage.

I like the look of Longshore, and Heretic in it's old form one one of my old favourites. Quite nice indeed :)

Awesome, midships was one of my very favourite Halo 2 maps. Full of swordy goodness!

When are they going to remake Coagulation/Blood Gulch? A new version of Relic would be fun too.

Midship was a great multiplayer map in Halo 2. This is good news

Yay! Midship was good fun!

The weak-minded fool that I am, I'm off to go play Halo 3 MP now.

@Eraysor

Valhalla is the successor to Blood Gulch and Coagulation. People often disagree but I think with the inclusion of Valhalla, a Blood Gulch remake is rendered unnecessary. Remove the man-cannons and it plays pretty much identically, even if it doesn't look the same.

Midships... that brings back fond memories. How about Ivory Towers too?
