With Halo 4's release just a few weeks away, Microsoft outlined the post-release content plans for the game. The War Games Map Pass gives you a 15 percent discount if you purchased all the upcoming maps individually.

 

The pass costs $24.99 USD2 (2,000 Microsoft Points) and gives you access to three War Games map packs as they become available. Additionally, purchasers receive two in-game helmets (‘Scanner’ and ‘Strider’) as well as a unique in-game emblem (‘Falcon’).

 

The Halo 4 War Games Map Pass is included as part of the Limited Edition Halo 4 game, Microsoft says.

 

Below are the War Games map details:

 

Crimson Map Pack (December release timeframe)

• Maps: Wreckage, Harvest, Shatter
  
• Description: Witness the chaos of a clash of civilizations in Wreckage, with its blend of claustrophobic spaces and dangerous exposures and venture into the human colony environs of Harvest, and explore a human foray on an alien moon in Shatter.
  

Majestic Map Pack (February release timeframe)

• Maps: Landfall, Monolith, Skyline
  
• Description: Landfall’s emphasis is on infantry battles against a glittering ocean on a distant world, while Monolith exposes you to the naked vacuum of space – and the firepower of opposing teams, and Skyline’s distinctly industrial feel provides new challenges in somewhat familiar, but occasionally confined spaces.
  

Castle Map Pack (April release timeframe)

• Maps: Daybreak, Outcast, Perdition
  
• Description: Daybreak is set in a military facility against the backdrop of an idyllic mountain range, while Outcast plunges you into the warrens, canyons and arches of an alien edifice, and Perdition takes players into the heart of an urban sprawl, with tactical speed and situational awareness its key features.

3 Maps for $25? I think not

[Turkishxroyal]

its 25 for all nine maps

[VEF214]

So the LE still gets the helmets and emblem as well? It says the pass gives you them, and the pass already is inside the LE, so...

It's not 3 maps. It's 9. They will release 3 map packs which will contain 3 maps each. We don't know yet if they come with any extra bonuses than we saw here. If they do i will update this article. Also, map packs can range from 800 - 1200 microsoft points anyhow. You save 15% than buying it individually.

That's what I'm assuming too. That better be the case

Video for your pleasure

On gamestop.com, the Limited Edition says you get all of the maps post-launch.

[Guest Genkipool]

That is correct

I think they confirmed that each map pack is $10. Actually it has to be if you save 15% by spending $25 dollars. I got to say I appreciate that they are trying to make the savings sound impressive by using 15%, but in reality you only save $5. That's kind not worth how insulting it is. I mean Borderlands 2 has four $10 DLCs and a pass for $30, so you get four for the price of three. That seems generous. This is you three for the price of 2.85.

So if you purchased the LE (which I have) you will get this "Season Pass" with the LE?

Yes.

[Guest Justin C]

Wait so do you need the season pass to even access the multiplayer?

You don't need the season pass to access multiplayer. The season pass is just DLC. We don't know if this might restrict certain playlists yet.

You get all of the maps for $25

[Guest Guest]

So the pass comes with the LE game,not the LE console

[Guest Fr4gb417]

I'm a bit annoyed that my Halo 4 LE Console I bought didn't come with a season pass too.
