The second announcement concerns the return of Team Snipers to the War Games playlist. In Team Snipers, there is no radar, secondary weapon, grenades or ordinance. Players will need to kill each other the old-fashioned way, using only the UNSC Sniper Rifle.
Another game mode that will be added is Shotty Snipers, which is the same as the above but adds Shotguns as secondary weapons. Several “medium-sized maps – slightly modified versions of Haven, Abandon and some Forge favorites will be available” from 343 Industries according to the Halo Bulletin.
Team Objective is also on the cards which groups teams of four vs four for Regicide, Oddball and King of the Hill with being Complex Oddball being removed, and no instant respawn King of the Hill and Oddball.
