The [[Series 8: Mythic#Floodfight update|April 2022 update]] for ''The Master Chief Collection'' allows players to fight the [[Flood]] in Firefight, as part of another new gametype called Floodfight. During Flood waves, maps are shrouded in a dense Flood fog. A variety of Flood enemies have been added, including [[Flood combat form|Combat Forms]], [[Flood pure form|Pure Forms]] and [[Flood carrier form|Carrier Forms]]. A new civilian Human Combat Form has been added, as well as [[Sangheili Major|Elite Major]] Combat Forms. In Floodfight, certain weapons on maps have been changed, such as the addition of the [[Flamethrower (gameplay)|Flamethrower]] as a power weapon on some maps. This mode also adds the ability for the player's corpse to be infected by the Flood, which produces a brand new ODST Combat Form. Additionally, [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s may sometimes appear between waves or in a bonus round (and as such, the [[Sentinel Beam (gameplay)|Sentinel Beam]] is added to the ODST sandbox). Due to the default setting, the Sentinels often aim for the Flood Combat Forms instead of players. Some maps may receive changes for spawn location, such as Alpha Site where Flood | The [[Series 8: Mythic#Floodfight update|April 2022 update]] for ''The Master Chief Collection'' allows players to fight the [[Flood]] in Firefight, as part of another new gametype called Floodfight.

Some maps may receive changes for spawn location, such as Alpha Site where Flood Forms and Sentinels may appear from the elevator. Flood forms are also capable of driving the [[Warthog]] on Lost Platoon, becoming a lethal force if not deal with quickly enough. All Flood and Sentinel waves can be selected from regular Firefight options, even mixed with Covenant waves in the same set. | ||
Also in this update, new customization settings have been added to maps in the form of Boons. Boons add helpful assets to the map that players can use, such as additional weapons and allied NPCs which spawn on some maps. Two [[Special Operations Officer|Spec Ops Elites]] spawn in [[Udka-pattern Assault Carapace|drop pods]] on the night versions of Rally Point and Crater, two [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] spawn on Lost Platoon and Security Zone, and two [[New Mombasa Police Department|NMPD Officers]] spawn on Windward. These allies will respawn each round. Allied Elites can come equipped with Needlers, Plasma Rifles, Carbines, or Fuel Rod Guns, allied Marines spawn with Assault Rifles, Battle Rifles or Shotguns, and allied NMPD Officers spawn with Assault Rifles, Silenced Pistols or Shotguns. These allies can assist the player by manning vehicles or turrets. | Also in this update, new customization settings have been added to maps in the form of Boons.
