May 3rd. That is the day, the day that your ODST disc will allow you access the Reach Beta. Nothing much has been said about the beta besides the date, but Bungie gave us some nice screenshots, and a little info on one of the Multiplayer maps.

And a nice shot of what may be the new box art.

And here is the info on the new map.

“Utility and economy spurred industry amidst these isolated and unforgiving badlands, but like all infrastructure facilities on Reach, this hydroelectric site is under the purview of the UNSC war machine. All threats to the continued, predictable operation of humanity's final line of defense must be met with swift and decisive force.”

Right about now, those fortunate enough to be inside the walls at X10 should be getting a flythrough of Powerhouse courtesy of Marcus and Brian. Look for reports from the field coming soon.

You can find all the assets in this article along with the previously deployed Halo: Reach goodies in our official multimedia project page. More on the way. Stay tuned.
