Halo 3 ODST takes place during the events leading up to the end of the level Metropolis in the game Halo 2. It is also the only game to feature a open-world campaign level that isn't strictly linear. With a unique soundtrack that stands out from that of the rest of the franchise, Halo 3 ODST has a much less complex/diverse campaign, but is rich all the same. Unlike other games, it does not delve into the canon as much, but instead focuses more on the characters themselves, and their situation, morals and what their mission really is.
The player instead takes control of multiple characters throughout the course of the game, all of them being Orbital Drop Shock Troopers of the Alpha-Nine unit. It is also the first Halo game (excluding Halo Wars) where the main player is NOT John-117, or features him in any fashion. Halo 3 ODST is unique as Halo campaigns go.
Nothing changed for the game, except that all content was removed aside for the campaign, as well as updated graphics, including the game running at sixty frames per second and 1080 pixel resolution, and the removal of Firefight. Once downloaded, it was then added in the Halo 3 submenu. On December 19, 2014, as an apology for the state of the game's poor server management, 343 Industries made Halo 3 ODST a downloadable content package for Halo: The Master Chief Collection for Xbox One. Later, on May 3, 2010, an invitation to all Halo 3 ODST players to play the Halo Reach Multiplayer Beta was made, and the beta lasted until May 20, 2010. Starting in July, they continued to release until the end of November, two months after the game's release. Halo 3 ODST saw large success, just like its predecessors, managing to sell a total of 2.5 million copies were sold in the inital weeks of release, totalling a sum of 125 million US dollars.Īn official five-part prequel comic series called Halo: Helljumper was released in the months leading up to Halo 3 ODST's release. However, Bungie realized its potential, and instead made it into an independent game, although it is heavily connected to Halo 3, especially in terms of multiplayer. It was originally supposed to be just an expansion pack for Halo 3, named Halo 3 Recon. Halo 3 ODST was released September 22, 2009, not long after the release of Halo Wars by Ensemble Studios. It serves as a de facto prologue to Halo 3. It is a spinoff from the main trilogy, taking place between and during the events of Halo 2 and Halo 3. However, due to the Xbox One's lack of backwards compatibility, it cannot be played on its successor console. Halo 3 ODST (formerly known as Halo 3 Recon) or simply Halo: ODST or ODST, is a first person shooter science fiction video game developed by Bungie Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios for Xbox 360.
