Here are the ten best maps in Halo history.įor some reason, it’s really hard to find people who appreciate the unique design of Halo CE’s Chiron TL-34.
With six mainline games released across three different console generations, there is a gigantic pool of maps to choose from at this point, making the act of actually trying to highlight only ten practically a fool’s errand. While the main draw of Halo multiplayer is arguably the balanced gun-melee-grenade trifecta that has been imitated many times since the 2001 original, online shooters live and die on the strength of their maps and fortunately, the Halo series has some of the best.
As Microsoft’s flagship Xbox franchise, Halo and its deep multiplayer component has been enjoyed by millions of players worldwide and is almost single-handedly responsible for keeping the lights on in the early days of Xbox Live. When it comes to Halo, one thing has stayed true over the course of the series’ 14 year reign among the top first-person shooter franchises: people come for the story, but they stay for the multiplayer.
