+The '''''Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack''''' is a [[downloadable content]] collection for ''[[Halo 2]]''. The $19.99 downloadable content collection set was released on July 5, [[2005]], and serves to allow players access to several DLC multiplayer maps without requiring the use of [[Xbox LIVE]].{{Ref/Site|URL=https://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&cid=5727|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Multiplayer Map Pack Released!|D=06|M=10|Y=2020}} The pack includes the [[Bonus Map Pack|Bonus]], [[Killtacular Pack|Kiltacular]] and [[Maptacular Pack|Maptacular]] map packs' content for a total of nine new levels - though does not include the maps [[Desolation]] and [[Tombstone]] due to the [[Blastacular Pack]] releasing in [[2007]].

+The pack also includes [[Halo 2 Auto-Updates]] 1, 2 and 3 and several videos alongside a [[Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack Manual|manual]] that goes into detail on the lore, layout and development of the maps included. The disc was produced for the original [[Xbox]] console, but is also [[Backward compatibility|backwards compatible]] on the [[Xbox 360]], and is also included in the ''Halo Triple Pack'' alongside ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and ''Halo 2''. The Map Pack was not made available for [[Halo 2 (Windows Vista)|the ''Halo 2'' PC port]] due to the pack's content being included in the release by default.
-The '''Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack''' was a downloadable content collection (''not'' an expansion pack) to [[Halo 2]]. The 20 USD downloadable content collection set was released on July 5, 2005. It is the solution for the downloadable maps and Auto-Updates for non-[[Xbox Live]] subscribers (however, this disc was released before the release of [[Desolation]], [[Tombstone]], and [[Halo 2 (Xbox) Auto-Updates|Auto-Updates 4 and 5]] and therefore does not include them). It contained nine additional multiplayer maps, three Auto-Updates and five videos. This disc was for use on the [[Xbox]] game console, but is backwards compatible on [[Xbox 360]].
+The disc does not allow the player to play ''Halo 2'', only installing the map and update content to the console's internal hard drive. As such, a regular copy of ''Halo 2'' is still required to play the content. A similar disc, ''[[Halo 3: Mythic]]'', was later released for ''[[Halo 3]]''.
