For those wondering, these back accessory items do not change the gameplay ofHalo 3. They are merely for players to spruce up their individual Spartan, purely cosmetic. Many of the items remain consistent with what fans may expect a Spartan to wear; pieces like a Demolition or an Ammo Pack as additions to armor portraying what these troopers might bring into battle. Some of the other pieces stand out a bit more, like the Pulaski. This is a classic tool players will recognize as being an axe and adze used in real life to combat forest fires.
One of the most iconic item options is the Sword and Board. This attaches a sword and shield-style piece of equipment to the back of the Spartan. Hardcore fans will know the shield design because it is theHaloLegendary difficulty symbol. Those interested in new content forHalo 3can also look forward to special maps that are coming to the game. There are two locations coming to the shooter that were part of the scrappedHalo: Online.
As the complete way to experience the series,Halo: The Master Chief Collectionhas come a long way. Even after all these years, players can still experience fresh content for timelessHalogames. It seems like 343 Industries is making use of the anthology to bring updates to the old games. Typically, shooters as old asHalo 3would not have a team continuously providing new activities, but this is not the case here.
Some players may be less than enthusiastic about back accessories for Spartans. While this is one more way to make a trooper unique in battle, it does not affect gameplay at all. WithHalo Infiniteseeing a delay, fans may be wondering why 343 Industries is still working onHalo 3. Nevertheless, new customization options and maps should help revitalize the game more than ever.
Halo: The Master Chief Collectionis available now on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
