Halo 4 Limited Edition packed with multiplayer goodies

Microsoft has unveiled a special edition of Halo 4 that will give players access to extra multiplayer content.

Central to the Halo 4 Limited Edition is the War Games Map Pack: nine multiplayer maps that will not be released on Xbox Live until after the game has been released.

It will also give fans early access to six character Specialisations, including some that owners of the standard edition will have to wait for. There will also be exclusive in-game skins for the Spartan-IV armour and assault rifle, an in-game emblem and Avatar items.

Finally, the Limited Edition comes with Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, a collection of videos exploring the fiction and the development of Halo 4.

The Limited Edition will launch alongside Halo 4 on November 6th.
