Certain Halo Anniversary maps will work in Reach

As part of Halo Anniversary's package, you'll get a Reach-compatible map pack. Microsoft has revealed that six multiplayer maps and one 'firefight' map from Anniversary will be playable in Halo: Reach. If you only own Reach and fancy getting hold of them, a separate release will be available too.

If you just have Anniversary, the maps will be accessed in the standard way through the disc menu. Should you be Halo-obsessed enough to own both games, it's recommended that you activate the Map Pack with the code that'll come inside every Anniversary package (allowing you to launch the maps from both games).

The stand-alone Map Pack will be available for Reach owners to purchase for 1200 MS Points ($15 USD), which will be activated like any other piece of DLC (and then launched from inside Reach).

Halo Anniversary will be released for Xbox 360 on 15 November in the US. If you're interested in the art of Halo, have a read of John's feature on that very subject.
