Halo 4 multiplayer requirements

Halo 4’s multiplayer will require a minimum of an 8GB USB Flash drive or hard drive to run.

Microsoft confirmed the news on the Halo 4 product page.

A statement on the site read: “At a minimum, you’ll need at least an 8GB USB Flash Drive or an Xbox 360 Hard Drive to play Multiplayer mode in Halo 4.

“For an optimal experience playing with an Xbox 360 Hard Drive is highly recommended. For Xbox 360 4GB, Arcade and Core consoles, the Xbox 360 Hard Drive is sold separately.”

Microsoft has presumably released this information four months before Halo 4’s release to make sure buyers aren’t taken by surprise at the system requirements.
