The term '''"Multiplayer"''' generally refers to the ability of most video games allowing more than one person to play a game at the same time in a non-[[campaign]] setting. Multiplayer can be conducted using [[split-screen]], [[System Link]], or [[Xbox Live]]. In the ''[[Halo]]'' games, multiplayer has been regarded as a core element to the game's design and a giant part of the success of the ''Halo'' franchise. | The term '''"Multiplayer"''' generally refers to the ability of most video games allowing more than one person to play a game at the same time in a non-[[campaign]] setting.

''[[Halo 3]]'' introduced many new features to its multiplayer experience. The most prominent feature was the ability to play the campaign [[Co-op|cooperatively]] online and via system link with 4 players. Unlike ''Halo 2''<nowiki/> 's local Co-op, where players control "clones" of the same character, each player in ''Halo 3'' is assigned control over [[Master Chief]], [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]], or [[Elites]] [[N'tho 'Sraom]] and [[Usze 'Taham]]. | ''[[Halo 3]]'' introduced many new features to its multiplayer experience.
