Favorite snacks, a bottle of Game Fuel (aka Citrus Cherry Mountain Dew™️), and a controller in hand, I’m ready to play aura As if it were 2007.
Halo 3 Refueled has arrived and it’s full of your old favorites… or at least the maps that may have left the biggest impact… Halo 3 Era. Now, it’s 2023, so things have evolved a bit. These maps may visually resemble those old favorites but it is important to note that they have been updated and adapted for them Infinite auraTheir sandbox mode so they can play a little differently.
Oh, and did we mention there’s another bonus map created specifically for this celebration?
Let’s do the dew and jump!
maps
Sylvanus (also known as the Guardian)

Statuses: Killer | Land Grab | eccentric | King of the Hill (KOTH)
Ask anyone what their favorite is Halo 3 The map is there and chances are good that a Guardian is there, so it’s no surprise that we have a fantastic re-imagining of it here for you to explore. Another map with some great Slayer moves, famous for Oddball, this is just a great all-round map that feels like coming home.
Hole (also known as pit)
Credits: UneeQ, Mr. Greencastle, Azwilko1997, Artifice7285
Modes: Capture the Flag (CTF) | killer | Koth
Hole is another usual answer to the “name your favorite” question. Halo 3 Map!” Question. This map excels in CTF thanks to its symmetrical nature and equal opportunity for teams to exert control. Grab your staff and let the muscle memory flow directly to your thumbs.
insurance Blackout returns as Cliffside! First seen in Halo 2then Halo 3And now Infinite auraThis fan-favorite device will make you reminisce about LANs of days gone by. Play some Slayer, Oddball or KOTH and enjoy the familiarity.
(Warning: Please report any ghost sightings. They shouldn’t be there!)
One of the most vertical maps in aura, the building returns as a home! It’s very convenient that people will often take a part of the map to hang out. From straight Slayer to KOTH, this map has a wide range of experiences to offer.
Keep your head on the swivel and watch the Spartans fly! Narrows is back with a fresh coat of paint. How you get from start to finish is up to you, but every choice comes with a risk – take the elevator and be exposed in the air, dare to cross from the top to the middle, or Try your luck below? Narrows is an excellent CTF map but also plays well with other modes.
If one-sided target modes like 1 Flag CTF are your preference, then Higher Ground is the map for you. Storm the beach, breach the gates, grab the flag, and race for the score. KOTH and Slayer are also favorites on this map.
Isolation (aka solitude)

Statuses: Killer | ctf | fortresses | Land Grab | eccentric
You either love it or hate it, but the isolation comes back. Famous for its location in the Installation 00 flood containment facility, Isolation is ripe for Mongoose shenanigans, crazy CTF rides, and tricky Slayer plays.
Critical dew point (Link will come later today)
Credits: ArturBloodshot
Statuses: Killer | ctf | Koth | eccentric
If you have played Athlon in MCC, the critical dew point will be familiar to you. This reimagining of the map is perfect for some high-octane gaming, so gather your team and practice these callouts. Note: Don’t forget to stop for supplies during the match, you may be in need of a reward!
Grab your controller, grab your Dew, team up, and party like you do 1999 2007!
