Halo: Campaign Evolved Confirms Free Firefight Mode
This year’s HaloFest feels like it could be a bit empty, especially with the massive news surrounding Activision taking over the franchise. There’s still a lot up in the air, leaving some Halo fans cautious about what the future holds and how much there is to celebrate. However, one piece of news has given fans something to look forward to: Firefight is coming to Halo: Campaign Evolved.
Boots On The Ground
That’s right, Halo: Campaign Evolved is getting a Firefight mode. This would mark at least the third time a Halo game has received Firefight months after launch. It’s certainly good news, as players will once again be able to fill a lobby with four Spartans and fight off waves of Covenant and Flood enemies. It also adds some much-needed longevity to a game that previously had no non-campaign multiplayer component.
Attendees at HaloFest will get an early chance to try out the mode, but Halo Studios hasn’t released any gameplay footage at the time of writing. Additionally, Firefight will arrive as a free update for Campaign Evolved. We should learn more details between December 12 and 13 in Seattle, Washington, when HaloFest takes place.
