As you all may know, 343 Industries have recently showcased Capture the Flag in Halo 5: Guardians; in addition, you all have already played Slayer, Breakout, and Strongholds in the Beta last December. However, some fans were curious about classic game types like King of the Hill and Oddball being present in Halo 5. Today, 343 Industries revealed the day one lineup for playlists and confirmed what most of us have wondered for a while.

When Halo 5: Guardians launches later this month, Arena will ship with four game modes which I previously mentioned – Slayer, Capture the Flag, Strongholds and Breakout. Josh Holmes was recently asked if older gametypes would be part of their post-launch content plans and this is his reply:

Here is a list of fan-favorite game types that our Forum members said they would like to see brought back in Halo 5: Guardians –

Oddball

King of the Hill

Assault

Extraction

Infection

Grifball

Race

So while Halo 5: Guardians will eventually introduce some gametypes as post-launch content, we don’t actually know which ones will be returning. As always, we’ll keep you updated on the latest Halo 5: Guardians news when it becomes available.

What do you think about Halo 5’s launch lineup? Feel free to join the discussion on our forums now and let us know.
