Strange things are seemingly afoot in the Bungie testing labs this week, as several gamertags have been spotted playing custom multiplayer games on an unnamed ’secret’ map. Is this the forthcoming Chill Out remake, Cold Storage, or something else altogether?

With speculation high that we’ll be getting our mitts on Cold Storage earlier than originally thought – as part of an extra special Bungie Day gift to the community – it seems likely that this would be the map in question. Though one has to wonder, if we’re already aware of the map name why bother to cover it up during playtests?

One reason could be that this isn’t Cold Storage at all, and could in fact be the first signs of Live testing for perhaps ‘Purple Reign‘ or ‘Moonbase Alpha‘; two maps currently scheduled for release some time in the future as part of an upcoming map pack.

Either way, with testing going on as we speak, something is coming… and by the looks of things, soon.
