In a way, this format could also be the driving force that makes the next Halo the 343 game that captures the magic of the original trilogy. While Halo Infinite will definitely have a narrative that continues on from the mostly derided revelations of Halo 5: Guardians , its open-world structure opens the door for a lot of side stories covering other corners of Halo's extended universe . There is room for side stories featuring the cast of Halo 3: ODST , RTS title Halo Wars 2 , and the best of the novels. In this way, maybe Infinite can find a narrative that satisfies everyone and forges its own path away from Bungie's **Halo ** tril

Earlier this year, Microsoft announced the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate . This was confirmed to be a souped-up version of the current Xbox Game Pass system, and it'll reportedly deliver over 100 games as well as online multiplayer as part of this service. We expect that the presentation is going to go into further detail about the other features that will be a part of the Game Pass Ultimate, most likely with announcements about the titles that are going to be available to access and any multiplayer quality-of-life improvements on Xbox G

A campaign of raids against Covenant forces was yet another opportunity to allow would-be adversaries to switch sides and join the Banished in their cause, thereby swelling their ranks. Atriox's charisma was so strong that he even managed to convince a Covenant special ops unit called Silent Shadow to def

Halo Reach introduced many civilian units and it would ordinarily be unfair to put most of them on this list for "worst" since they aren't intended to be combat-ready. But one of these is notoriously bad that it would be a disservice to Halo historians if it weren't included on this l

The events of Halo 5: Guardians saw Cortana return as an AI with a terrifying version of peace as her main endgame. This character arc began with her rampancy issues that were a heavy focus of Halo 4's overall st

As mentioned earlier, Halo Infinite details are scant, but a recent teaser clip on Halo's official YouTube page unveiled the return of a faction known as the Banished, which might replace the Covenant and Forerunner forces as a primary enemy . They were first introduced in Halo War

The Pelican is a UNSC aerial transport vehicle capable of dropping Scorpion tanks into battle or deploying a squad of soldiers. While it does possess useful logistical capabilities, it lacks combat effectiveness. It was great at dropping units into the popular Blood Gultch map , but if there was a whisper of fighting, it would go down in fla

Although it's easy to say that players on the side were exposed to gunfire, it could hold four snipers at one, allowing this single vehicle to kill any unit at any range and everybody could help cover each other. Just like the skins, where not all advancements were welcome , sometimes the originals just did it the b

343 Industries has had a somewhat rough time picking up Bungie's narrative torch. In the hands of its original developer, the Halo _ franchise told a cohesive story through the main trilogy and several side games. While a tale of a lone space marine taking on an alien menace won't win any awards for originality, it was laser-focused on delivering massive set pieces and epic moments that players lived through in-game. The _Halo games created by 343 Industries, Infinity Nikki Guide in contrast, don't always feel like they're all part of one long narrative. Both Halo 4 and Halo 5: Guardians feel like puzzle pieces, and fans need to fill out the board with expanded universe content like novels in order to see the full picture. The sad truth is that quite a few of these books end up telling stories better than the Xbox games the Halo franchise revolves aro

According to thurrott.com, "it's easier to build a single player game than a multiplayer shooter; thus, the single player arrives, they look for potential issues, then release the multiplayer portion of the game." Brad Sams from thurrott.com is suggesting that it's possible Halo Infinite will only be single-player at launch. Since the game is swiftly approaching, 343 Industries might release the campaign first, then the online multiplayer later. Red Dead Redemption 2 is another example of a game that released its single-player campaign fi

Eric Nyland wrote the very first Halo novels to expand on the lore and give readers a look beyond the games. Both The Fall of Reach and First Strike offered a story surrounding Halo: Combat Evolved that gave definition to a protagonist Bungie purposefully left blank. His works introduced the world to Master Chief's Blue Team allies, Catherine Halsey, and more characters who would later find their way into both the games and spinoff media like the upcoming Paramount+ TV show .
