'Halo: Reach' to add campaign matchmaking

Halo: Reach Campaign
Campaign matchmaking will be added to Halo: Reach next month.

Bungie's community content writer Eric Osborne said that the feature was held back so that players would not spoil the story by playing missions out of order.

"The main reason for its omission is simple: we don't want your very first experience in campaign to occur on the very last level," he said.

"Like all our matchmaking playlists, Campaign Matchmaking will offer all players in the party a vote as to which mission they'll end up tackling together.

"Democracy is totally sweet, but in this case, the majority might overrule your No Spoilers Doctrine."

The October update will also add bug fixes, balance issues, new game types and additional Forge maps.

Halo: Reach was released last week for Xbox 360.
