Just in case you didn’t figure it out by now, famed Halo developer* Bungie has reiterated that Halo 3: Recon will be the company’s last Halo game. Don’t worry, though: there’s a map pack scheduled for early next year and another one due for around the time of Halo Wars‘ release.

*Perhaps the company didn’t want to be forever pigeon-holed as “the Halo devs”?

The new expansion will pit you as an ODST marine aka New Hero and will serve as a prequel to Halo 3. We’ll have the teaser trailer up soon and box art.

Update: Trailer after the jump.
Update 2: Luke posted this snippit over at NeoGaf.

The word “stealth” here isn’t really a great word. This isn’t a stealth action game like a Splinter Cell game. This is a Bungie-made Halo game where you will play as an ODST, which of course, is different (and no, I’m not talking about how it’s different ;b) than playing as a Spartan super soldier. This isn’t Halo Cell, Ghost Recon: Halo, Republic Commandalo or whatever.

Edit: Forgot Call of Halo and Gears of Halo.
