Posted last night as part of this week's Bungie Weekly Update, Frankie mentions that upcoming multiplayer map Purple Reign, which was planned to be a part of Halo 3's Spring DLC, will not make it into the DLC package. Awww. The reason is simple, it simply cannot be ready in time. But all is not lost fanboys, because team Bungie has other map that they've been working on code named "Moonlight Sonata" and it will replace Purple Reign in the Spring DLC. Moonlight Sonata has been in development for a while, but progress on this "universally adored" map was far behind the others. Now, for whatever reason, development on it has picked up and outpaced Purple Reign, so Bungie felt they had to make a Spring DLC swap. So, live with it.Also, Bungie promises to list specific details about the upcoming Halo 3 title update soon'ish as the biggest change it'll be packing is a new and improved melee system. And honestly, even if the auto update were to just fix the melee, we'd be satisfied. Full Bungie Weekly Update details about love, life and melees can be viewed after the jump.
