Purple Reign Finally!

In this weeks new Bungie Update, they finally revealed Purple Reign.

See Larger screenshots here.
No other information about the level was revealed.

I think it's about time to have a covenant themed map.

Looks just like "another map". Nothing really exciting me.

The map itself looks ... boring
Im just amazed about the scale of the not-walkable area ^^
Just cant wait to get out of the map

The lighting is weird. Paying for maps status: No

Those screenshots barely show anything.

This video is better, though the guy playing is terrible.

Looks like a cross between Midship and Ascension at times. I like it.

Totally reminds me of a map in Unreal Tourney 3.

Ah, the long awaited Purple Reign!

Looks pretty cool. Can't wait for its release.

Looks sweet, but the colors are a bit drab for Covenant colors. It's like in Halo 1 if you have bad graphics, that's what the covenant vehicles look like.

I'd still hit it.

This map actually looks pretty fun to play. I can't wait. I wonder how big the map really is. I think those pictures are kinda deceiving. oh boy! I wonder if this will be released as a single like Cold Storage or with 2 other maps like any other map pack.

Funny how he's showing the map while trying to avoid firefights... read the description next time.

Also, this map seems well thought out, but can't say for sure until I grab it when it releases. Hopefully I'll see some awesome Halo Moments on it.

Actually when he did go into firefights, he still sucked balls, so yeah.

I hope you can put lolbanshees on this three-tiered (right?) map.

In the description to the video it says its part of the upcoming map pack Mythic. So itll probally come with two other maps.

Assuming Mythic is the just the name of a map pack, and not something more. Bungie hasn't given official descriptions concerning that, as far as I can see.

My guess (only based on common sense) is that it is a separate version, if you will, of Halo for the sole purpose of showing off the maps at PAX.
