It seems Master Chief won’t be trying the “old meets new” approach just once. Instead of creating something new, they’re revamping the old stuff.
Halo Studios is reportedly working on remakes of Halo 2 and Halo 3, which could follow this year’s Halo: Campaign Evolved, which is based on Unreal Engine 5. According to Rebs Gaming, this is happening. Watch the video below for more information. He claims to have received evidence from his sources that the entire original Halo trilogy is being remade. One of his sources sent him evidence to verify that remakes of Halo 2 and Halo 3 are in development. According to the sources, development is underway and in the early stages.
According to these sources, the Halo: Combat Evolved remake will include content from the other two Halo games, such as the Brutes, and will reference those games in the new prologue missions. The Brutes may also appear in the original Campaign Evolved missions via a planned new Skull mod. The leaker believes that Halo Studios is working on a new multiplayer project, as well as the next main Halo game, in addition to the remakes. In October 2024, Halo Studios announced that it is developing multiple Halo games using Unreal Engine 5. The first of these, Halo: Campaign Evolved, was announced last year and will be released this year for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC.
As the name suggests, Halo: Campaign Evolved is a complete remake of the campaign from the first Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved. Like the original, it does not feature multiplayer. Although a specific release date has not yet been announced, Microsoft has confirmed that the remake will be released this year and will be multiplatform from the start. This means that you won’t have to wait months for the PlayStation 5 version.
Previously, there was a rumor that the release date would be July 28. Players who pay extra will be able to start playing as early as July 23.
