What happened to the halo series?

|


| Seems kinda forgotten. It's kind of funny how easily ultra popular franchises like Halo can just go away. I haven't heard it so much as mentioned in years, at least not before this thread.


| Glad im not the only one that thinks this too.


| It's xbox exclusive, right? It died with xboxonexboxonexboxonex


| If only the xbox one had more games before it died out. It would've survived the console war.


| >>144875 there's el dewrito on PC. Also apparently halo 6 is gonna be on PC?


| Skin pack on MC, all we can get

It died out because microsoft shot themselves in the foot with the xbone. Plus Bungie dropped it a while ago. Not that it really matters if the way they handle Destiny is any indication on how they would be treating Halo.


| Btw Xbox One X has Master Chief inside, thats everything you can get now from Halo, or the Skin for Minecraft on Switch xD


| Man, now that you mention it... I haven't heard about Halo in a long time.

I guess it's finally entered the halls of gaming history at last.


| 343 Industries killed it


| On March 25, 2015, 343 Industries announced Halo Online, a free-to-play Halo multiplayer game for Windows. A closed beta test limited to Russia launched in the second quarter of 2015. The title was developed with Saber Interactive and published by Innova Systems; it is powered by a modified version of the Halo 3 engine.[77] The project was cancelled in August 2016.


| A leaked beta of the game was used and modified with a launcher dubbed "ElDewrito" that circumvented the region limitation and later added content and bugfixes to the game, even after the cancellation of the official release.


| Future
In December 2014, 343 Industries general manager Bonnie Ross expressed Microsoft's aim for the Halo series to last at least 30 more years.

...Yeah rip.


| After bungie dropped it, it caused a divide after destiny came out.

While 343 Ind. are not the best, Halo 5 is solid indication that Halo is devent hands for now. But the el dewrito for PC is better anyhow for those looking to play halo 3 on the pc.

Chances are that Bungie will continue to make a dissapointing game while 343 will try to keep halo relevent for a long time to come. Despite its hylacon days being long gone.
