Template:Multiplayer Map Infobox Purple Reign is the nickname for a map that is announced in the Bungie Weekly Update: 10/26/2007 [1] . It will likely be available for download on Xbox Live Marketplace in the map pack available spring 2008
It has been stated that it will be symmetrical or semi-symmetrical with the middle of the map being higher than the rest.[1] This has led to theories that it will be a Midship remake, as that map was symmetrical, had a raised area in the center, and has a purple color scheme. It is also possible that it could be a Gemini remake, although this is less likely. According to the Bungie Weekly Update: 1/4/2008 [2] the map will be an entirely new map. The map is supposed to be full of mid to long range weapons, and from what the update states it appears there will be multiple floors.
The nickname is a reference to Prince's song and movie, Purple Rain.
