According to Microsoft, the Halo 4 campaign is playable from start to finish, with some levels approaching "near-complete" status, while others remain in need of polish and bug eradication. Additionally, Microsoft said the first wave of Spartan Ops mode missions find themselves in a similar state, as is the case with the 10 multiplayer maps that will ship with Halo 4.
Not only is Halo 4 nearing completion, the new live action series Forward Unto Dawn is wrapping up. Microsoft said the cast and crew for the series recently finished its last day of shooting in Vancouver, and are now entering the final stage of production. Forward Unto Dawn launches in October, and more information on the series will be shared at Comic-Con 2012 next month, Microsoft said.
Also Microsoft shared news on Halo 4's newest revealed multiplayer map, Longbow. The company explained it has a long history of snow-themed maps, specifically calling out Snowbound and Avalanche from Halo 3, and that this theme will continue with Longbow in Halo 4. This map will showcase one of Halo 4's unannounced game modes, and saw a number of revisions before Microsoft decided on its final setup.
Longbow is a mid-to-long range map that supports vehicles like Warthogs, Mongooses, and Ghosts
