A bundle of new Halo 4 info has dropped online via a Microsoft retailer presentation fact sheet, further detailing the Spartan Ops roll-out as well as weapon and vehicle numbers for the campaign.

Fan site The Little English Halo Blog credits the find to Microsoft's ExpertZone portal, a domain built by the publisher to share product information with retailers.

The list offers more specification on Spartan Ops: in our recent interview with 343, the studio explained that Spartan Ops - an entirely new campaign - came free with Halo 4. According to this new information, that's partially true.

Spartan Ops will be divided into 'seasons', fifty missions per season, five missions per week for ten weeks. There's an emphasis here that the first season will be free: perhaps some redeemable code may be included with each copy of the game.

The bullet point list also specifies the game will include ten new weapons, two new vehicles, while multiplayer will come with ten maps on disc, with more to follow in future DLC. It'll allow you to gain new weaponry and abilities through career progression. Matchmaking will also be tweaked, offering drop-in/out from matches and better group tracking.
