Valhalla confirmed as remade map in Halo 4. Now called Ragnarok!

Yes!!! Valhalla was one of my favorite maps from Halo 3. SO glad it’s being remade. Loving the new name of it too.

Ragnarok refers to end of the earth in Norse mythology. IN comic books it refers to the epic battle between Thor and the Jormungand the Midgard Serpent. Thor kills Jormungand, but dies due to a slow poisoning from the serpent.

Anyway, as soon as I find a screenshot of the map, you know I’ll be posting it!!!

Oh, I guess I should have said this was confirmed coming from Frank O’Conner at the Eurogamer con in London.

Newly Released Halo 4 Screenshots 9-26-12: Spartan Ops

JUST released (within the last few hours of this article) come some fantastic screenshots from Halo 4. Here are 6 shots of the Spartan Ops!

Hmm, now what is that blue bubble for??

Wow this is VAST! Seeing those columns coming from the sky, knowing it’s part of an armored shield for the entire planet…just jaw dropping. This place is MUCH bigger than a Halo ring.

Crimson Squad in action. While we will follow the events of Majestic Squad (which I believe will be led by Commander Sarah Palmer), we as gamers will play as part of Crimson Squad.

A “Didact Dog” (Alpha Crawler) and a Watcher converge on two members of Crimson Squad.

Who let the (Didact) dawgs out! The crawlers are bigger than many people thought. They are roughly 8 feet in length.

SIT. STAY! Good dog.

Are you excited for Halo 4 yet????

Okay, the level of detail in this shot of a UNSC facility is just SICK!! I’m salivating, just wanting to play on it!

Another view, but from the ground.

Blood Red visor! Awe yeah!

Note the cool holo-display on the plasma pistol.

INFECTED, new….FLOOD! Screw Zombies, now we get to be flood! Yes!! Can I say I love 343??? (Is that Asparagus in the background? LOL)

JUST released (within the last few hours of this article) come some fantastic screenshots from Halo 4. Here are 11 shots of the Campaign!

Loving that Covenant CSS cruiser outside of the window!

What lies beyond each corridor?


The jungles of Requiem. (Look how lush it is and the lighting is fantastic!)

Some hapless grunts are about to be PWNED!

From left to right: A Marine, Master Chief, Commander Sarah Palmer and Commander Thomas J. Lasky

Chief is in the middle of it now! Isn’t it great to see Master Chief fighting again? I can’t wait to play as my favorite Halo hero!!!

Doth more carnage ensue? It doth!

Incoming trasmission for Commander Lasky. “Tank beats everything!”

The MANTIS in all it’s awesomeness. I can’t wait to see this produced as a toy…

The MANTIS doing what it does best!

Captain Del Rio, commanding officer of the UNSC Infinity. Wow, the details on his face are spectacular. Just look at the skin. Varying shades of skin, wrinkles, stubble, and note that curl of hair at the top of his hairline. 343 just went all out here. Looks VERY believable!

Next up War Games screenshots. Stay Tuned.
