Microsoft's E3 Conference was finished to a first teaser trailer of Halo 4.
While the announcement consisted of a CG sequence and included no substantial information, it was introduced as the first part of a brand new trilogy, despite its title

The video takes place directly after the end of Halo 3's secret ending, as a cryogenically-frozen Master Chief is awoken by AI Cortana (in a scene that flicks through the Spartan's organs as they restart), as their ship is destroyed by forces unknown.

Using his suit's in-built anti-grav jets, Chief blasts through the destruction, using a trusty pistol and grenade launcher to dig his way through until he lands in the front-half of the ship. The camera pans round to show the planet they were drifting towards at the end of Halo 3, a massive complex on its surface opening up, perhaps dragging the ship, and them - in.

The game's due for release holiday 2012.

Also earlier during the presentation, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary was also confirmed. The game will include a remastered campaign, classic multiplayer maps "enhanced and updated for Xbox Live", and online co-op.

Yup, you read right, a new map pack.. For 800 ms points you will get two new multiplayer maps and one Firefight map..


(From majornelson.com)
Three new multiplayer maps are coming next month for Halo: Reach.
Here are the details that I’ve scraped from the press release:

Condemned:
Condemned takes place aboard Orbital Station Gamma, a massive space station high in orbit above the planet Reach. Prior to the Covenant’s overwhelming invasion, Orbital Station Gamma provided long range communications for UNSC fleets and a vital lifeline between Reach and Earth. During the Battle of Reach, the station suffered terrible punishment at the hands of the Covenant but a few fortified sections remain intact, fully pressurized, and ready for combat. Condemned supports 6 – 12 players in a variety of action-packed game types, including Team Slayer, Team Objective and Free for All.

Highlands:
Highlands takes place on the top-secret Military Wilderness Training Preserve on Reach. The Preserve is a large, wooded area where Spartan super-soldiers trained long before the war with the Covenant began. During the Battle of Reach, the Preserve was the site of key battles between the alien invaders and a group of Spartans who used their familiarity with these UNSC training grounds to significant tactical advantage…but not everyone who enters these woods makes it out alive. Highlands expands the fight with massive-scale engagements for 8 – 16 players in Big Team Battle, Team Slayer and Team Objective.

Unearthed:
Unearthed takes the battle for Reach to a large Titanium mine and refinery located in the Viery civilian sector of the planet. This particular mine was built to take advantage of the exposed titanium inside a massive meteor crater. The titanium produced here is used in much of the UNSC hardware, from the chassis of the Warthog to the meters-thick armor plating of capital ships like the UNSC Pillar of Autumn. While this facility was quickly abandoned when the Covenant arrived on Reach, it still has significant tactical (and economic) value and it won’t be long before both humans and Covenant return to battle for control. Unearthed allows up to 4 players to launch a counterassault against the Covenant in Firefight and Firefight modes such as Generator Defense.

Created in partnership with Certain Affinity, the Defiant Map Pack will be available this March on Xbox LIVE for 800 Microsoft points, and will include all new Achievements worth a total of 150 Gamerscore. Keep an eye on Halo Waypoint for a brand new trailer. Or watch it out on Waypoint’s YouTube page.

Halo: Reach - Noble Map Pack coming November 30!
- Three new maps for 800 points.. (Should be less than 800 points imo)

Ten bucks gets you access to three new environments. The first is Tempest, an abandoned shoreline facility featuring two symmetrical bases for 8 – 16 player fights.

Anchor 9, an orbital dry-dock controlled by the UNSC, is a more intimate 2-8 player affair.

Finally, there's Breakpoint, a series of frozen, modular archaeological labs for 8-16 players fracases.

And there is some new achievements, worth of 250 points.. (I know you care about your gamerscore)

So if you enjoy playing Reach Iam sure you will enjoy these new maps!

Over and out!
