Bungie has confirmed rumors that it plans to add new achievements to Halo 3’s campaign and multiplayer modes.
The new achievements comes part of the second update for the game which launched last September. The update will include several “under-the-hood changes”, as well as a new type of ban for multiplayer, and a per-playlist ranking of player skill when it arrives later this month.
“These aren’t the only achievements we’re adding,”
“But without proper context, there’s not a whole lot else we’re going to say.”
– Luke Smith, Bungie
