Heretic
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Template:Multiplayer Map Infobox
Heretic is a Halo 3 DLC map that can be obtained by buying the Halo 3: ODST game disc, available in Fall 2009.
Speculation
Heretic is possibly a remake of the popular Halo 2 map, Midship. It takes place in a Covenant Ship, like its predecessor.
Skull
The crest of the hidden skull on this level appears to be the Covenant Mark of Shame. Judging by this, as well as by the name, it seems that the level will be set in a Covenant Separatist environment.
Trivia

Halo 2's Midship, compared to Heretic.
- If speculation about Heretic being a remake of Midship is correct, it will be the fourth direct remake in Halo 3; the others being Last Resort, Blackout, and Cold Storage.
- Getting a Sword Spree medal on this map earns the player the 'Blades of Fury' achievement. This fact suggests that it is either a small or medium sized map.
- The picture of the level Heretic may be a hoax because it was leaked close to April Fool's day, however this is unlikely because of the similarity of the lights on the ceiling in the leaked picture, and the light that can be seen between the two spartans under the "Three New Halo 3 maps and the complete MP experience" tab on the Halo 3: ODST project page on Bungie.net (http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/features.aspx#multiplayer)
- If you look carefully in the upper left corner, you can see the Marathon symbol.
