Today Mircrosoft announced new Halo: Anniversary Maps that will ship with Anniversary edition of Halo: Combat Evolved. The new maps are Timberland, Prisoner and Installation 04. Also making its return is Beaver Creek, a classic Halo 2 map.
The multiplayer maps that will ship with the game will feature two different versions of the map. One will be the classic layout and design, while the other will be the modified version designed to work with Halo: Reach’s abilities.
Here are the descriptions for the three new maps announced today:
Timberland is “Halo: Anniversary’s” beautifully reimagined multiplayer map from “Halo PC,” set in the classically alpine environment so familiar to “Halo.” Once serving as a watch point for the immense relay complex below, the monitoring outposts nestled atop this ridge became a staging ground for human forces during their time on Installation 04. Toward the end of the conflict, a Covenant assault brought the marines here to a tragic end. Timberland is a tree-covered valley, sporting undulating hills, surging rivers, and a terrain perfect for large-scale vehicle mayhem. (8 – 16 players)
The return of “Halo: Combat Evolved’s” Prisoner delivers a claustrophobic and frenetic multiplayer experience now elaborately recreated for “Halo: Anniversary.” These spinning confinement platforms are a testament to the technological prowess of the Forerunners. In the event of a security breach, the facility’s suborbital location and frigid temperature were thought to be able to keep any threat at bay, but it appears those plans were… optimistic. Prisoner is a multi-level facility, with tightly-woven corridors and many bridges and ramps, perfect for the chaos of close-range combat. (2 – 8 players)
