The ‘Halo-everything’ Halo Waypoint is apparently getting a galaxy-class upgrade when Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary launches next month, according to a report over on Destructoid<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Both the web and Windows Phone versions will see updates, with layout and content management changes on the former, while the latter is getting some kind of futuristic app add-on that streams a live, top-down feed of Halo: Reach and Anniversary games in progress on your console.<\/p>\n

Dubbed the “Advanced Tactical Assault System”, the app is basically a GPS that provides important strategic info about teammate positions, statuses, and who has the gravity hammer.<\/p>\n

The update will also include a new challenge system somewhat resembling the official daily and weekly in-game challenges in Halo: Reach, now adding the ability to issue your own challenges to friends and earn credits.<\/p>\n

It’s not clear for the moment if any of these updates will be deployed for the Xbox console’s Waypoint channel, but I guess we’ll find out soon enough.<\/p>\n
