A prototype of Halo 4 for the Xbox 360.
Notes
- Predates the final build by almost a year.
- Original filename: Halo 4 (08257.11.10.20.0230-0) (2011-10-20) (beta) [Debug].rar + Halo 4 (08257.11.10.20.0230-2) (2011-10-20) (beta) [Debug].rar
- Once again, this build isnt much different between the September and October builds.
- There are more maps and some maps have progressed but not by much.
- There is a New Firefight option, the previous Firefight mode is now Old Firefight.
Details
The 2gb folder only features 5 maps:
- Complex
- Eden
- Extinct
- Grind
- Sinkhole (Does not work)
The 7gb folder is a more packed build featuring some campaign levels of varying progress/performance, and 10+ multiplayer maps.
- The Mantis has only been found so far, in Sandtrap. I think this is the only build you can find it.
- The Mantis is very very early in design, it is the Halo 4 Master Chief model but you can fire rockets and machine guns.
- Grind and Island are the same map

Screenshots
Sandtrap was at one point in development, I guess 343 hated that too...
Vahalla early in development.
The Pit early in development.
Complex still looking the same a month later.
WInner Screen is slowly getting put in.
TestingChamber. Map used for scripting, and vehicle testing.
Eden map.
Extinct early in development.
Grind map. Same map as Island (Not forge island)
Some campaign mission super early in development. Can also see the sniper in an early redesign.
Mantis can be found on Sandtrap. Inside the long corridor in the middle of the map.
Operating the Mantis. The camera is very jittery but you can fire rocket and machine guns.
