No release window was given. However, 343 Industries and Microsoft promise that the new mode "will bring PvE to Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer," andthat more information would be available in the coming months.
In previous Halo games Firefight allowed players to take on waves of AI opponents in co-op. The feature's new name might suggest a connection to Halo 5: Guardians' competitive Warzone mode. That mode also includes AI opponents, and allows players to use Requisition Packs for temporary boosts, weapons, and vehicle drops.

Wolverine 3 Was Intended to Be Rated R Before Deadpool
20th Century Fox is intending to make Hugh Jackman's final Wolverine movie rated R, and this was the case even before Deadpool came out.
There were rumors earlier this week that Fox would be leaving the PG-13 rating behind for the next movie because of its recent R-rated box office hit Deadpool.
However, as The Hollywood Reporter points out, the studio released a teaser image of the hero holding up the "middle claw" at Comic-Con last year. In addition, THR's insiders say that it was always designed as an R-rated movie because of the language and violence in Michael Green's script.
5 Things We Want From DC Rebirth
Last week DC Comics drew back the curtain on the "DC Rebirth" relaunch. Starting in June, the publisher will replace their current lineup with 32 new ongoing series. The goal is to provide readers a fresh starting point for the DCU and blend the best of the New 52 with the classic DC Universe.
It all sounds promising, but this isn't the first time DC has announced an ambitious relaunch aimed at re-energizing their comic book universe. Join us as we break down the five things Rebirth needs to accomplish if it's going to give DC the boost it needs this summer.
We love seeing books that can build on past stories in meaningful ways, add new wrinkles to familiar characters and generally treat the DCU like a living, breathing place. That's always been a particular strength of Geoff Johns' work, especially Green Lantern: Rebirth and The Flash: Rebirth, and it's why we're glad to see Johns at the forefront of this relaunch.
