The | The '''''Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack''''' is a [[downloadable content]] collection, but not technically an expansion pack, for ''[[Halo 2]]''. The $19.99 downloadable content collection set was released on July 5, [[2005]], and serves to allow players access to several DLC multiplayer maps without requiring the use of [[Xbox LIVE]]. The pack includes the [[Bonus Map Pack|Bonus]], [[Killtacular Pack|Kiltacular]] and [[Maptacular Pack|Maptacular]] map packs' content for a total of nine new levels - though does not include the maps [[Desolation]] and [[Tombstone]] due to the [[Blastacular Pack]] releasing in [[2007]]. | ||
The pack also includes [[Halo 2 Auto-Updates]] 1, 2 and 3 and several videos alongside a [[Halo 2: Multiplayer Map Pack manual|manual]] that goes into detail on the lore, layout and developmnent of the maps included. The disc was produced for the original [[Xbox]] console, but is also [[Backward compatibility|backwards compatible]] on the [[Xbox 360]]. The Map Pack was not made available for [[Halo 2 (Windows Vista)|the ''Halo 2'' PC port]] due to the pack's content being included in the release by default. | |||
The disc does not allow the player to play ''Halo 2'', only installing the map and update content to the console's internal hard drive. As such, a regular copy of ''Halo 2'' is still required to play the content. A similar disc, ''[[Halo 3: Mythic]]'', was later released for ''[[Halo 3]]''. | |||
