Halo: Reach Beta getting Invasion mode today

haloreach6

Bungie has revealed through the magic of Twitter that the Halo: Reach Beta’s getting Invasion mode today over on the new map Boneyard.

So, if you are one of the lucky million hitting it, the content will allow you to play six-on-six in Spartan vs Elite with the later on offense.

Good thing though, if you don’t make it, you can respawn next to an out of combat teammate for some lovely strategy pow-wowing.

It all sounds rather lovely, if you are a Halo fan.

Thanks, Joystiq.

Elites rule! Really enjoing it. Invasion is the mode that stands out. Different phases, nice respawning, very good balanced, enhanced vehicles and slayer is the way to go. Had so much fun. Holyhalogods just get that darn campaign right now.
