Submitted by aDub on April 12, 2008 – 5:31 am – 1,372 views2 Comments

Xbox 360 Fanboy posted this preview to the upcoming April 15th Halo 3 DLC ‘Legendary Map Pack’. Expected to cost 800 MS Points ($10US) this content will add 3 new multiplayer maps:

  • Avalanche: A reimagingation of Halo: Combat Evolved fan favorite, “Sidewinder”, “Avalanche’s” size makes it ideal for big ol’ games of Halo 3. “Avalanche” is a Forerunner power station set on a glacial shelf on an under-construction replacement for Installation 04.

*Best Gametypes: Multi-Flag CTF, One Flag CTF, One Bomb, Team King, Team Slayer

  • Ghost Town: A medium-sized map designed for one-sided games ideal player counts range from 4 to 10 players. Ghost Town is the battle-scarred remnant of a war-ravaged hydroelectric plant in the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro.

*Best Gametypes: Team Slayer, One Flag CTF, Multi-Flag CTF, One Bomb

  • Blackout: It’s not a reimagination, it’s a remake of one of Halo 2′s most beloved maps. “Blackout” very nearly speaks the same language that its predecessor, “Lockout”, spoke to Halo 2 players. Its long lines of sight and interconnected platforms preserved, but in a new location: a frigid UNSC research station beneath the low lights of the aurora borealis.

*Best Gametypes: Team Slayer, One Flag CTF, One Bomb
