Here’s a minor update to Halo 3‘s upcoming expansion, just so you’re in the know. A press release went out today announcing that the title will no longer be called Recon, but ODST.

Recon sounds catchier though. ODST is an obvious reference to the characters you will be controlling in the DLC. Says the PR:

Halo 3: ODST’s tale will focus on the legendary ODSTs or “Orbital Drop Shock Troopers” as they drop into the ruined city of New Mombasa, looking for clues behind the Covenant’s catastrophic attack on the city.

The PR goes on to say that they will be revealing more info on the game and its characters “in the near future.” Of course, we’ll let you know when they do.

• Halo 3: Recon works like a detective show
• Halo 3: Recon is a 3 to 5-hour expansion pack
