Halo 3: Mythic is the Halo 3 multiplayer disc that comes with Halo 3: ODST.[1] The disc includes Halo 3's multiplayer component, Forge, the Theater, and every Halo 3 multiplayer map ever released, including three new maps: Heretic, Citadel, and Longshore along with their respective achievements. These new maps are now available in the Mythic II Map Pack on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 1600 Microsoft Points.
The Halo 3: Mythic disc lacks the Campaign option of the normal disc. If you join a Campaign game, there will be an error saying, "One or more players cannot participate in Campaign because they are using HALO 3 MYTHIC"
