Halo 3 came out in 2007

New Halonews is coming back in a big way and it’s pretty exciting.

Now that a lot of the darkness has partedfrom the Halo Infinitedelay, 343 Industries is giving us huge updates for the Haloseries as a whole. Not all of them are good! But it’s nice to see multiple arms of the franchise talked about in any capacity.

To that end, Halo 3is getting its first update in a long while. Yes, that Halo 3. By way of the Master Chief Collection, Halo 3will get the “Waterfall” map, which was taken from the failed/defunct Halo Onlineproject. The name is gleaned from the file in the blog post itself.

Created on the back of Halo 3, Onlinewas going to be a thing in Russia and beyond in 2015, until it wasn’t in 2016. Thankfully, part ofSaber Interactive’s work is going to be preserved with this new map. It’s going to be tested in beta form first, then unleashed to add Master Chief Collection owners. Another win for game preservation!
