343 Studios has been sending out pieces of a 32 part puzzle surrounding their highly anticipated title Halo 4. After uncovering multiple pieces it quickly becomes clear that we are dealing with a guerrilla marketing ploy to unveil the boxart of the game.
As we are finding fragments, the story will be updated, but as of now, feel free to browse the gallery and see what you can make of it.
Update: The full image has since been put together and can be viewed here.
It turns out the messages came from Microsoft, which read “Your piece of the Halo 4 puzzle”. Apparently that the emails were sent out to the masses ensuring that the mystery was unravelled in a matter of minutes. We sure as hell got excited during the hunt for images, scavenging through forums and tweets, but after realising that each picture was part of a jpg link it became clear that simply altering the url, unlocked the entire gallery.
Now that we can see the full boxart, not much can be said besides the fact that The Chief seems to be facing an enormous space craft which kind of resembles the . In all seriousness though, this reveal is getting us really pumped to see what 343 has in stock for us.
not the final boxart
but the art is sick!
look again ;D
Wow, that looks awesome!
I have no doubt this game will be the best selling “game of the year” 2012.
Absolutely stunning.
I need to get a Xbox :S
