Flood in New Halo 4 Screenshot

A new screenshot of three Flood infected Spartan 4’s has been spreading through the interwebs lately. According to computerandvideogames.com and 343 Industries, the image is of the new multiplayer gametype ‘Flood’ rather than the campaign, which 343 has stated will not contain the parasitic aliens.

The gametype ‘Flood’, will be very similar to previous Halo’s ‘Infection’, where two infected players face off against eight normal Spartans; each kill turns the defeated player into the infected until either all players are zombified or the timer runs out. Other than the cosmetic changes in appearance, the only real change in the two game variations may be in the form of weaponry – seeing as how the Flood in the screenshot do not appear to be carrying the titular Halo Energy Sword.
