Yay Gravity Hammers!
Hammer Storm brings three free new modes to Halo 5: Guardians, as well as a new map, new weapons, and a load of new REQ goodies including new assassination animations, weapon skins, loadout weapons, emblems, visors, and armour.
If you enjoyed Grifball back in the day (and why wouldn’t you, it’s awesome), you’ll be delighted to know that, along with Assault and Fiesta, it’s making its return. Yay for Gravity Hammers.
We’ll also see the introduction of new map Torque. An “entirely new environment primed for battle, Torque is a large symmetrical map that caters to Capture the Flag and Assault game modes. The pistons in each courtyard can provide key gameplay for cover, traversal, and objective movement.”
Developer 343 Industries also detailed new co-op survival mode Warzone Firefight. Though the studio was coy about the release date, it did confirm it’s scheduled to drop later this year.
Writing on Xbox News Wire, the developer said it will bring “PvE to Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer and let players battle together against common foes (and truly show off their custom Spartans to boot!).”
Here, watch a video starring Spartans who are infinitely better than me:
Only last week I was complaining to a fellow Spartan that I was missing PvE Firefight modes. Am I the only one delighted to see it returning?
For more, head to Halo Waypoint.
