If it wasn’t enough for Halo Studios to drop some new third-person gameplay for Halo: Campaign Evolved, it also has a brand new mission to showcase in its entirety. It’s Assault on the Control Room, which immediately follows The Silent Cartographer and happens to be the longest mission in the original.
That translates to a whopping 28 minutes of new first-person gameplay. Besides showcasing Master Chief driving a Scorpion Tank alongside the UNSC Marines and clearing house, we also get to see some extensive Wraith gameplay. It won’t be anything surprising for those who played later titles, but this marks a notable first for the original campaign.
Otherwise, the sheer attention to detail and visual splendor is something to behold, whether it’s the weapon shots’ lighting in darker areas or glass realistically breaking under enemies. Performance also seems to be holding up pretty well, which is good news this close to launch.
And fortunately, you won’t have to wait much longer to experience Halo: Campaign Evolved, as it’s available on July 28th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. In the meantime, you can check out a cinematic trailer with gameplay captured on PS5 Pro or the three new Prologue missions, which are new to the remake.
