More On Halo 4's DLC Schedule
Halo 4 developer 343 Industries has kicked off the new year with some more information about additional content for Halo 4.
343's official Halo Waypoint Halo Bulletin lists the content of the second half of Spartan Ops Season 1 (see below), and it also notes that in late February there will be a Title update and the Majestic Map Pack (featuring two small maps and one medium-sized one). It's previously been rumored that Majestic will come out on February 25. Furthermore, the blog states that matchmaking updates will appear every Monday, and teases that some of the possible playlists for February included FFA and a "new and improved version of Team Snipers."
343 says that all of these schedules are subject to change and haven't been finalized.
