Halo on a PlayStation. Read that again, because we are still adjusting to it too. Halo: Campaign Evolved, a full remake of Bungie's 2001 shooter, lands July 28, and for the first time ever Master Chief is suiting up on a PS5.
This is not the HD touch-up we already got in The Master Chief Collection. Halo Studios is rebuilding Combat Evolved from the ground up, covering the original campaign missions and even bolting on a few brand-new adventures for the Chief. There is also up to five days of early access starting July 23, so the truly impatient can drop in before the July 28 launch proper.
Why this one is a big deal
The headline writes itself: this is the first Halo game to ever show up on PlayStation hardware. A few years ago that sentence would have started a war in the comments. These days, with Xbox handing its exclusives out left and right, it is just Tuesday, but the mascot making the jump still lands differently. It is one thing to see Sea of Thieves or Forza go multiplatform. It is another to boot up Halo on a PS5.
For anyone who never touched the 2001 original or bounced off the aging MCC version, this is the ideal way in. A proper remake means modern visuals and controls wrapped around one of the most important FPS campaigns ever made, the one that basically taught console shooters how to feel good. And if you have finished it a dozen times already, those new missions are the carrot.
So, is Halo on PlayStation the strangest timeline we have landed in, or just a smart move? Let us know in the comments.
