In just 13 days, Halo 4 will hit the Xbox 360 and along with it, the Halo 4 War Games Map Pass will release on Xbox Live for 2000 Microsoft Points ($24.99 US). This will mark a 15% savings over buying the next 3 map packs separately, meaning that each pack will sell for 800 MSP.

Along with getting access to the new maps in December, February, and April, you also receive two in-game helmets (Scanner, Striders) and an in-game emblem (Falcon). Anyone picking up the Xbox 360 Halo 4 Console Bundle will snag the map pass for free.
