As I sit here a content update is now dropping from orbit on to your Xbox Ones, yes today is the launch for the next Halo 5 Guardians free update, Hammer Storm.

Developer 343 Industries just held a livestream event where it unveiled the new expansion pack coming for Halo 5: Guardians. The return of the “Griffball” game mode is also highly anticipated by gamers of “Halo 5: Guardians”, although more details will be revealed the fans can not wait for its return. Warzone Firefight debuted with Halo 3: ODST and was included in Halo: Reach, but not Halo 4.

This is a vast courtyard filled with large pistons that can provide cover or help with moving across the map, making it an ideal setting for Capture the Flag and Assault sessions.

Free content updates were promised from 343 Studios before the release of Halo 5: Guardians and the studio has delivered on them quite frequently since the game released at the tale end of October a year ago. Longtime Halo fans may tear up at the sight of the latest weapon to be added to the game.

On the REQ front, look for attachments for loadout weapons, weapon skins, armors, emblems, assassinations, visors and stances. The new “ball” mechanic that powers the Assault and Grifball modes unlocks the potential for entirely new game types in Forge mode, not to mention paving the way for returning favorites like Oddball and Ricochet. Players will team up to take out waves of AI opponents without the fear of having enemy players breathing down their backs. The announcement should come soon and then we will have more info.
