Halo 3: ODST Remastered Now Available Within Halo: MCC

Been waiting for Halo ODST, as promised by 343 Industries? A while ago, the studio behind Halo 4 and The Master Chief Collection promised a free, remastered release of Halo 3: ODST to those who purchased the Master Chief Collection as an apology for the buggy and disappointing release.

Today, the codes have rolled out to those who qualify for the free content update. Additionally, the multiplayer map, "Remnant," has been added to Halo 2: Anniversary. Below you will find the patch notes from Halo blog:
