13 years after it came out, Halo 3 has a new map.
Season six of Halo: The Master Chief Collection launched last night, and it brought with it Waterfall, a Halo Online map now playable in custom games for Halo 3. Waterfall is a snow and ice-themed map with a silenced SMG and Brute plasma rifle placed natively on the map. The trailer below shows it off:

Halo Online was the free-to-play PC Halo game based on Halo 3 multiplayer and developed by Saber Interactive that Microsoft pulled offline before it got a full release.
Developer 343 had planned to release two Halo Online maps for Halo 3 in season six, but Edge fell by the wayside “based on feedback and overall readiness”. The plan is to release it at some point in the future though.
