Halo 4 Spartan Ops Episode 8 Trailer and Screens Blow Up
Written Wednesday, January 30, 2013 By Richard Walker

Some new screenshots and a short trailer have just emerged for Halo 4's next installment of Spartan Ops. Episode 8 sees the poop hitting the fan, as Requiem is invaded and some stuff happens. We can't say what, at the risk of entering spoiler territory.

Suffice it to say, if you haven't played the previous seven Spartan Ops episodes, you might want to sidestep the new trailer. Feel free to check out the screenshots though. We're pretty sure that those are spoiler free.

Halo 4 Spartan Ops Episode 8: 'Expendable' will be releasing on February 4th, alongside the Team Doubles playlist and new Rogue and Tracker Specialisations. You can check out the trailer and a few of the screens below. There's 10 in the gallery.

@1 If you mean achievements tied to Spartan Ops themselves, it's not likely. The Majestic DLC in Feb. will have achievements for sure but I'm certain they'll be for Matchmaking only, much like Crimson.

Awesome, I love Spartan Ops. Just wish they had a option to find other players for any of them. Since I only recently got Halo 4

The first two episodes of Season 2 haven't been great. Although there are new maps and none of them have been repeated up to this point (except Infinity basically being a "superlevel" of sorts, I'll let it slide), the objectives haven't changed, the maps haven't been exciting, and, in my opinion, there are still too many "run and gun" sections.

When are we gonna get a level where we all get Scorpions and have to drive around a whole level and create havoc? I understand there have been Scorpions so far, but they've been confined to one map and only sections of that one map at that! (Quarry is the map if you didn't know). Even more Warthog action for co-op fans would be appreciated, there's too many sections where they give you a Ghost or two, but everyone knows that a Warthog is the more enjoyable of the two with a friend/teammate.

About time they add Doubles. They seriously need to get their act together with the playlists. And I'm hoping for some new maps soon.

@6: Episodes 6-10 are all Season 2, that's why they just started coming out again, since there were only 5 Episodes in Season 1. You can even tell since Episode 1 ends with a cliffhanger on Episode 5, Chapter 5.

@8: Wrong, check the above trailer again. At the end it says Season 1 Episode 8. Episode 5 ended in a cliffhanger the same way many TV shows have mid-season cliffhangers.

So basically mission 8 is recyled missions hoorah! (If you haven't guessed I'm not suprised or hyped due to the screenshots which might as well be copy, pasted from the mutliplayer and people won't notice the difference)

Looks nice, I didn“t even start episode 6 through, alot of great games are coming out now, so this will have to wait few weeks/month.

(Devil May Cry, Crysis 3, Tomb Raider and much more!)

I simply don't understand why people hate that the maps are recycled. I mean weren't there only like six firefight maps in Reach? Spartan Ops is Firefight with a story. If you want firefight just pick a random ops map you like, disregard the com chatter, just shoot away, and then rinse and repeat.

@4 I agree with you completely. I just bought the game and was dissapointed to find that older episodes of Spartan Ops, there is no quick search... and how in the hell is there not one for the actual campaign? I'm new to this game also, I am enjoying it greatly though. Now they just added griffball!!! YES!
