Exclusive footage from 3 new non-beta Halo 3 maps

"Dutch TV gameshow Gamekings recently went to Seattle to visit Bungie at their offices and while they were there they got to play with the latest build of Halo 3’s multiplayer. Of course this isn’t very interesting for anyone that doesn’t speak Dutch but the sweet thing is; they got footage. In their preview they showed about 6 minutes worth of gameplay from the new build including footage from Last Resort (the new Zanzibar), Epitaph and one other new map. We figured we didn’t want to bore you with Dutch chitchat so we extracted all the good stuff and combined it into a nice little trailer, which is embedded after the jump."

Unfortunately the source material, courtesy of NeoGAF’s itsgreen, is in SDTV and has some interlacing issues but it’s good enough to give you a general idea of what these three maps are going to look like. The guys from Gamekings also did some interviews but nothing new came up unfortunately, though they did hear some rumblings about the rumored 4 player co-op. Bungie didn’t reveal anything from the Singleplayer campaign unfortunately.

Apart from the new maps there’s also a compass built in the HUD, right under the health bar. It’s also interesting to see that the bubble shield seems a bit more easier to notice now. Feel free to point us to other differences between this build and the Beta in our comments while we drool about the hotness of the new Zanzibar some more.
