Halo 5: Guardians will have a new tweaked version of the extremely popular Halo mode Firefight called Warzone Firefight as announced last month. Just recently, 343 Industries announced a livestreaming of the new Firefight gameplay clip with a lot more footage to show on April 12.

As reported by Shack News, the brief promo trailer can be viewed tomorrow on Halo's Twitch and You Tube channels starting 3pm Pacific/6pm Eastern to divulge a little more details on the game's beta release this Thursday.

So what can gamers expect from Warzone Firefight?

According to Game Spot updates, Halo 5's Firefight version will have teams of players who would have to face a steady stream of increasingly challenging enemies with each new level and fulfill all game objectives in five rounds. Matches are also played out on War Zone maps. Furthermore, players can utilize their Reqs for items, weapons, gears, and more.

Completing the objectives is a tedious task that requires meticulous attention to details. With such difficulty, being useless would be the last thing a gamer would ever want when immersing in this extremely challenging and time-consuming game.

Perhaps the most thrilling enhancement of the Warzone Firefight is the addition of the of the so-called Mythic bosses which refer to "extraordinarily strong boss units with special abilities and a ridiculous amount of health requiring your entire team of Spartans to coordinate power weapons and vehicles in order to bring them down," as cited directly in an IGN post.

Important reminder: Inactive participation endangers the team. In this mode, communication and strong teamwork is a must. Slaying your way to victory is an almost impossible task without an efficient and effective collaboration using a diverse range of weaponry and vehicles.

The Halo spin-off version is slated to come out this summer although no official date has been publicly announced nor confirmed.
