Hello and welcome to episode 32 of HCS Pro Talk! This week, the Europa Halo Champions League Grand Finals took place along with a ton of other community run tournaments. Of course there is plenty of news to cover, scrims to recap, and other things to talk about. Finally, we get into the main topic of the show which is maps and map design within Halo. Thank you for the listening and as always, links to everything that is talked about in the episode is below for your viewing pleasure.

We can’t quite announce that date yet – but we’re in the home stretch and quickly closing in on that huge milestone. Once the retail update goes out, the next order of business is bringing the new and improved MCC to Xbox GamePass – which was officially confirmed back in June during E3. We’ll have more details to share here soon but final timing is still pending the current flight and overall status for the retail patch itself. Once retail MCC is updated and the title moves into GamePass, the MCC Insider Program is going to morph into something a little different. We’re still working through some of the final details but a persistent “test realm” is going to live alongside the retail product where the team will continue working and iterating (along with the highly anticipated “Custom Games Browser”). Once that shift occurs, anyone who owns a digital copy of MCC (there’s no viable entitlement system for a physical disc) or is an active GamePass subscriber will be able to continue playing the Test Realm builds and helping to shape future updates for MCC. This test realm is where ongoing work will continue with further patches, fixes and features that will then roll into the retail product.

We will run a FFA league in the future and an invitation only Pre-LAN cup for confirmed LAN teams. We hope to see demand for the FFA in EU after today’s event and more players enter. The No Team Needed event will return on a monthly basis. For September's run we hope to go back to 32 players. If you want in on this it's a first come first served basis. DM me to be added to the list of interest for September and once a date is confirmed we will ask you first.
