As posted over at Halo Waypoint, this Monday brings some interesting additions to War Games, including some interesting SWAT variants and a very special surprise – – Mini Slayer!

SWAT changes are as follows:

Forerunner SWAT

·         Starting weapon: LightRifle
·         Secondary: Boltshot
·         Pulse Grenades
·         Infinite ammo
·         No weapons on map (Standard SWAT maps)
·         No Armor Abilities
·         Regular map rotation

Covenant SWAT

·         Starting weapon: Carbine
·         Secondary: Plasma Pistol
·         No grenades
·         Infinite ammo
·         No weapons on map (Standard SWAT maps)
·         No Armor Abilities
·         Regular map rotation

Mini Slayer is exactly how it sounds: All Spartans are miniature! Kill cams and melee’s are disabled, and players will only have access to one map and the Assault Rifle to start, but insider information tells us that we might be seeing more maps in the near future.

Team Throwdown has been updated to v4 settings and the following maps and gametypes are in the rotation:

·         Abandon Team Slayer
·         Adrift CTF
·         Dispatch CTF
·         Haven Team Slayer
·         Haven Extraction
·         Onyx Team Slayer
·         Simplex Team Slayer
·         Simplex CTF
·         Skyline Team Slayer
·         Skyline CTF
·         Station 9 Extraction

And finally, Big Team Slayer Pro is getting radar! So be sure and vote “Pro” and play on the new map settings with less randomness and more focus on team play and individual skill, instead of relying on random weapons drops to make or break the win.

See you on the field, and don’t forget to shoot CHa0s in the face if you see her! As always, she will be more than happy to return the favor ;)
