Several months after its reveal at the Halo Championship Series, Microsoft has been relatively quiet about Halo: Campaign Evolved, the remake of the first Halo from Bungie. However, it seems fans won’t have to wait too long for a release as The Verge’s Tom Warren reports that Halo Studios is allegedly targeting this Summer.
It may seem relatively soon, but it could technically mean a launch sometime between late June and late September. That gives Microsoft time to reveal more about the remake, including the three new prequel missions starring Master Chief and Sgt Johnson with new environments and mechanics. With the company seemingly looking into another Developer_Direct, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Campaign Evolved appear, even if the Xbox Games Showcase in June is more likely.
Halo: Campaign Evolved is coming to Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, marking the series’ debut on PlayStation (with future titles also planned to launch day and date for the same). It offers an extensive visual overhaul courtesy of Unreal Engine 5, along with level changes, improved cinematics, and even weapons that don’t appear until later in the trilogy, like the Energy Blade.
While it won’t feature competitive multiplayer, four-player campaign co-op and cross-play are confirmed. Check out all the biggest differences between the remake and the original here.
