In recent game footage that has been released to the Halo worshiping masses, who have been looking forward to the 4th version of XBOX’s for quite some time now, Microsoft has revealed some pretty exciting details regarding Halo 4’s multiplayer feature.
Ubergizmo is reporting that “Developer 343 industries who took over Bungie Studios’ role in the Halo franchise also dropped some hints that there might also be a form of social gaming service, and with a little bit of imagination, it might end up being somewhat like Battleog or Call of Duty: Elite, with speculation looking at some sort of narrative element being added to the multiplayer aspect.”
In Microsoft’s press release they said: “At the heart of Halo 4 is a stronger focus than ever before behind storytelling and player choice. Players will be offered an unprecedented level of customization and a narrative experience never before seen in a first person shooter. On a technical level Halo 4 pushes the boundaries of the action genre by incorporating larger battlefields than ever before and players will experience conflicts that seamlessly span land, sea, and space.”
And with the success of Halo 3’s matchmaking reaching 1 billion online matches back in 2009, the new and improved version 4 with multiplayer features can only expect to eventually outnumber these previously held statistics in an all-inclusive Halo narrative, combining the art of storytelling with an interactive multiplayer mode.
