A recent posting at the Halo Waypoint blog is offering up details for Halo 4's upcoming Crimson Map Pack.
The pack offers three maps (Harvest, Shatter, and Wreckage), eight new achievements, and a Matchmaking playlist. Listed below are the eight achievements:
Now They Fly? - Get a kill while airborne in a Warthog (50 points)
Size is Everything - Kill 20 enemies with a detached Machine Gun Turret (20 points)
ODST - Kill a player while you're airborne from using a Man Cannon (30 points)
Bigfoot - Kill 20 enemies using the Mantis' stomp attack (20 points)
David and Goliath - Board an enemy Mantis (20 points)
Clay Pigeon - Shoot an enemy out of the air while they use the Man Cannon (40 points)
Special Delivery - Kill an enemy with a melee attack when landing from a Man Cannon
Pump Yer Brakes - Score the killing blow on a Mantis
The Map Pack also offers up a new game mode called "Extraction," a 5 on 5 mode "where opposing Spartan teams are tasked with extracting assets from various sites around the map. Once a team has found a site and is in position, they must plant their beacon and protect it from the opposing team while the extraction process occurs. If the defending team remains in control of the beacon, they receive one point, however if the opposing team overtakes the site before extraction is complete, the point goes to them. Once a site has been extracted, a new site becomes available. The first team to extract five points wins."
Halo 4's Crimson Map Pack is due out Dec. 10, and will cost 800 Microsoft Points. Check out the trailer below!
