Halo Infinite is receiving a bunch of maps from the 2007 classic, and a new one as part of a collaboration between Microsoft and Mtn. Dew. The event will last from November 14 to November 28.
This release is called the Halo 3 Refueled playlist, featuring seven maps from Halo 3 remade using Forge for Halo Infinite. The maps include modern versions of Blackout, Construct Narrows, Guardian, High Ground, Isolation, and The Pit. Basically, the best multiplayer maps from Halo 3.
However, to celebrate the resurrection of Mtn. Dew’s Game Fuel drink, a brand new map called Critical Dewpoint is out. The deep green hues pay homage to the soft drink company as well as the Xbox, which Halo helped pioneer as a competitive series of consoles. What’s more, the map includes a vending machine that gives out power-ups.
Critical Dewpoint was created by ArturBloodshot, a reputable Forge user who said, “That nostalgia is really important to the community because it allows you to reflect on how you started, and how the game has evolved to bring you new experiences while keeping the essence of the thing you love.”
Forge was one of the key features of Halo 3, having been first implemented into the series at the time. It has become one of the staples of the franchise’s multiplayer that keeps fans returning time and time again. If you thought Critical Dewpoint was creative, here’s an entire recreation of Andy’s Room from Toy Story made in Halo Infinite’s Forge Mode.
