Firefight 2.0 Confirmed for Halo: Reach

As no doubt hundreds of adoring fans are finding out at the E3 Halo: Reach event tonight, Halo 3: ODST's popular Firefight co-op survival mode is being confirmed for final Bungie chapter, due this September. Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb and the Halo Waypoint have both broadcast via Twitter that Firefight 2.0 will be a featured mode.

Who knows what new surprises may be in store...after yesterday's campaign trailer it's not too much of a stretch to imagine new vehicle maps and interesting locales. At the very least, we can expect matchmaking this time around - probably our only real gripe about the original Firefight mode.

We should have some more details tomorrow. Everyone excited yet?
