- "It’s a chilly, slender map, an Ice Queen with a terrible wrath."
- — Luke Smith, Bungie employee, on "Narrows"
Narrows[1] is a Halo 3 multiplayer map.
It was first discovered in the third Bungie Podcast of Summer 2007, and was listed as having a "very special weapon in the middle". It was further detailed in a Bungie Humpday Challenge as a long Forerunner outpost set in a snowy and cold environment, and was revealed to be the external bridge level featured in one of the Halo 3 video documentaries. It was known by the codename "Chill" during Spring 2007, and was discovered in the hexadecimal code of the Halo 3 Beta, and was later it was relabeled as "Long and Lean" [2]. However, it has been finally confirmed by IGN and Bungie Studios to be known as "Narrows".
Narrows is a symmetrical level, with two opposing bases, each with almost identical weapons in each base. A Man Cannon at the back of each base propels the player to the opposing base. Underneath the Forerunner bridge is another arcing bridge, and underneath that, a "lean" light bridge.
The map also features a M41 Rocket Launcher, a Shotgun, a Needler, a Spiker, and a M7/Caseless Submachine Gun.
The map's design may be a remake of Gephyrophobia from Halo PC or a recreation of the outdoors bridges on the Halo: Combat Evolved campaign levels Assault on the Control Room and Two Betrayals.
