With Halo 3: ODST set for a September 22 release on the Xbox 360, Microsoft continues to keep the game's marketing campaign on a slow burn, dribbling out new information on a semi-regular basis. Today, the game's developer, Bungie Software, unveiled the three new multiplayer maps that will be included with the game as part of its self-proclaimed Bungie Day celebrations.

The first map, Heretic, doesn't entirely fit into the "all-new" category, as it is a re-envisioned take on Halo 2's Midship arena and features a symmetrical play field on the Covenant vessel Pious Inquisitor. Citadel is a small, symmetrical map that plays out in an abandoned Forerunner stronghold. Lastly, Longshore is designed for large squads, taking place within the Old Mombasa commercial port.
Halo 3: ODST will be available for the Xbox 360 as a $59.99 standard edition or as a $99.99 Collector's Pack, which comes with a UNSC-green special edition Halo wireless controller. In addition to the single-player campaign, ODST players gain access to three new multiplayer maps, the Firefight co-op mode, all previously released Halo 3 multiplayer add-on maps, and guaranteed access to the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta.
