The Mythic Map Pack is now available over the Xbox LIVE Marketplace as DLC. If you've come to the site looking for more information before making your purchase, or if you've plunked down the requisite 800 Microsoft Points and you want to learn everything you can about the shiny new toy you have to play with, this is your one stop shop for everything Mythic here at Bungie.net.
"The long-awaited Mythic Map Pack drops into Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Investigate Orbital’s abandoned hallways - before it was evacuated, the Quito Space Tether was heralded as the “Civil Engineering Monument of the Millennium.” Witness Assembly, where Scarab hulls loom overhead, being decontaminated in preparation for the city-sized Lekgolo colonies that will breathe life into the massive metal husks. An excavation site surrounded by deadly Forerunner defenses, the mysteries of Sandbox are hidden high above, deep below, and right before your eyes. There are no refunds for this item."

"Inspired by the Forger’s paradise, Sandbox, with nods to Assembly and Orbital, the Halo 3 Mythic Theme takes custom content to a whole new level, transforming your Xbox 360 into a sand swept playground."

Get Mythic, Get Bungie Pro
If you're still unsure, we're going to make our Mythic deal even sweeter. If you pick up the Mythic Map Pack, we'll throw in a complimentary, limited time offer for Bungie Pro. Since you're going to be making tons of your own Mythic content, we figured you'd need an expanded File Share to compensate. If you don't have Bungie Pro, or your current subscription expires before July, this offer will add or extend your Bungie Pro until July of 2009. If you were an early adopter via Halo Wars LCE, we're gonna grandfather you in as well.
Get Mythic and get Bungie Pro until July of 2009.
