Halo 3 Legendary Map: Blackout details and more

Well, you might want to know that the developers behind the downloadable content has released a little more information about Blackout, one of the maps included in the pack. In addition, a few new screenshots were also released. To find out more, head on over to the full article.

A lot of gamers are anxiously awaiting Bungie’s Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack slated to go live this April 15. For some of the more hardcore players, those two weeks may seem like an eternity. Thankfully, some members of the team who made the maps decided to give out a little information about one of the maps in the game: Blackout.

Players who’ve tried the Sidewinder map in Halo 2 will probably remember this map since it is essentially a re-imagination of it. While some of the more prominent landmarks can still be found, expect the map to be a little more easy to travel since some of the harder jumps have been toned down.

It was also revealed that Blackout is set in a UNSC research station in the Arctic. According to Allen Murray, the producer of all Halo 3 DLC, it is where all of the R&D on military grade Otter Pop rations took place.

Murray also mentioned that the map would have some pretty interesting scenery including cool racks of glacier core samples, Doppler radar, and other pieces of research gear strewn about. Further lending the Artic feel to the map is the addition of the “beautiful Aurora Borealis in the sky.”

There were other details the dev team mentioned about Blackout such as some details on the map development. If you want to find out more don’t hesitate to click on the Source Link below. Be sure to keep checking back here for the latest information
