Eurogamer: The original Halo Wars ends by putting itself in stasis, with the human warship Spirit of Fire coasting through void - its crew forced into cryosleep, its ultimate relation to the rest of the saga left open for debate.
Halo will make its PS5 debut with a massively modernised remake of the original Xbox game, Combat Evolved.
That’s according to the Halo Leaks account on X (or Twitter), which has accurately outed information about the franchise in the past.
Replies(1)I expect this to be announced pretty soon. Can't wait, this game was awesome. I wonder how of a remake it'll be though, hopefully not a remaster because we already have that lol.
it will be running on unreal engine 5, so it will look good. The question is will it run as good as it looks
I think they teased it a few months back when they announced Halo studios. It does look quite incredible graphically but as Hennessy says above, how it runs is gonna be a different story given UE5 track record.
it would probably be like the gears of war reloaded. Which was a remake of the remaster of the original.
...this gen is getting confusing with so many re-whatevers.
@S2K: “ It needs to be a complete redo of graphics or else it’s not my cup of tea.”
I completely agree with you and would add a VR mode as well🥺
oh yeh, theres like a showcase soon, maybe they'll announce it there.
or at the game awards
but ue5 only looks pretty. the games run ..
abit weird.
It's being shown at the Halo World Championships which they had already announced a few weeks ago.
Better reboot than another re-touch (remake after an already remaster) .... but 343/Halo is incompetent now, so .... guess this is best they can do with help of Coalition
So much memories with halo.
The original Xbox was my first console (actually 64 but barely played) and the first game was halo. Me and my brother use to play coop almost everyday.
We eventually traded in for a PS2 because of kingdom hearts lol
I played the first 2 Halo games. That's Bungie's Halo.. I do not know whether 343's Halo is as good as Bungie's.
Either ways Halo is one of Microsoft's big franchises. So many rumours so it's becoming more likely it'll come to PS5
Halo 3 is Bungie's game... so is Reach and ODST. 4, 5 & 6 (Infinite) are 343's. They aren't bad... just different. The original trilogy story ended and should have finished there. But MS wanted to 'Star Wars' this franchise and came up with new stories that sort of just sit there.

Like last year we’ll be on the Main Stage to talk about it but this year we’ve also got a “deep dive” panel planned for the Community Stage that you won’t want to miss.
This Halo CE mod allows a new way to play co-op, but probably in the worst possible way.
This looks like cursed halo at its finest, love it. They need to bring mods to consoles.

Well written article. Part of it I agree with, haven't played Halo wars 2 yet so can't comment on that. But 343 did fuck up the story, they took one of the greatest stories in gaming and made it generic.
As far as multiplayer goes thought, they've justified everything they did wrong with the campaign. It is simply incredible, over a year after release and STILL gets free content every month. Not to mention the unlimited amount of fun custom games provide.
The story kept me around for over a decade and the co-op mode which complimented the fantastic campaigns.
Ever since 343 took over,the series lost its brilliance to me. I hoped Destiny would fill that sci ci FPS void but nope.
I stopped caring for the HALO Series a little bit after Halo 2
A few years ago I recently went back and replay the first two games and realized just how bad their single players actually were lol
I still enjoy the multiplayer in the first Halo and definitely like some of the close corridors like multiplayer in the second but for me it was sort of short lived
I believe the problem with the series might be it's bi yearly release I believe the frequency might be a little bit too high and maybe they need to hold off from releasing a Halo.
The not to compare Halo to Call of Duty or Assassin's Creed I believe the frequency of their releases might be a bit stagnating to the user base as to why they're starting to sell a little less, I think they need to work a little longer on that series and allow users to miss it a little bit.
