So Bungie has finally revealed details on when and what the multiplayer beta will consist of. There's no word on the size of the download yet but we'll be able to play three maps - Valhalla, High Ground and Snowbound - in a "wide variety" of gameplay types, says Bungie. The dev also hints that some of the game modes will be familiar while some will be new. One new game type we know about is called Escort.
The three maps that we'll be able to slaughter each other over and over again on are the same ones that were revealed to the press last September. We also got to play with new weapons and vehicles during the Bungie visit too, and it looks like they'll all feature in the open beta. But several new features have now been revealed with the release of a brand new multiplayer-focused video.
