First look at Halo 4′s Spartan Ops Episode 6 gameplay:

Week of January 28th launches Spartan Ops Episode 7:

To quote developer 343 Studios about the upcoming Episodes:
“After the Infinity Challenge concludes, regular Matchmaking updates will start up again; and that includes the return of the second half of Spartan Ops Season 1, which features brand new stories, missions and locations.

Episode 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 – I’m not going to spoil it for you, but let’s just say that the first half of the season was a warm up. As I mentioned in the Episode 1 notes, we had a lot of set up to do to get this corner of the Halo universe up to speed. And now that it’s really moving? Well, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Hints of what’s to come: Death, disfigurement, betrayal and… oh, I’ve said too much already (and that’s just the humans I’m talking about)!”
