Halo 5 Archives

The size of modern games is massive, and 500GB just isn't enough in a lot of cases. This is especially apparent in Halo 5's case, which has a massive file size An early retail copy has snuck out the gate (via VG247), and on the back it suggests that you have "up to 60gb" of space to[...]

Warzone is the new multiplayer mode in Halo 5: Guardians that 343 are really trying to push It's a huge 12 v 12 game mode that has Spartans squaring off against each other while NPC enemies get in on the action too It looks neat and is taking a few ideas from MOBAs and applying[...]

It will come with the Limited Edition version of the game and also on the Halo Channel to buy separately. It covers the story of Master Chief where he came from, as well as getting into into who Blue Team are, a huge part of Halo 5: Guardians. Take a look at the trailer here. https://youtu.be/2SGy1W4VsjgVideo can't be[...]

Halo 5 is just around the corner now What will likely be the Xbox One's biggest exclusive this year, is just over two weeks away now after taking three years off since the last one. The game has gone gold now too, meaning it is off to be put on discs around the world This news[...]

 The mode became of favorite of not just level creators, but also those who just wanted to mess around with the physics of the game. The mode will be returning in Halo 5 too This new video shows the work that has been done, in what 343 is saying was built from the ground up It[...]

The Sprint has been a very interesting little series surrounding the creation of Halo 5: Guardians. It actually digs quite candidly into the high pressure situations it takes to get the game made. This new video, which marks the start of Season 3, is a real treat though It follows composer Kazuma Jinnouchi as he hops around[...]

They get slight tweaks here and there, but a Banshee is a Banshee is a Banshee. A lot of them have seen somewhat of an overhaul in Halo 5 though In a new post at Halo Waypoint, 343 show off the new designs and how the Banshee, Ghost, Wraith and Phantom are different Their designs seem[...]

The Halo 5 marketing campaign is really ramping up now, and rather cleverly it is leaving us with more questions than answers Last week, we saw an advert that suggested that Chief had died. This week, we have got a launch trailer that shows of he hasn't really, but that he is turning on the people[...]

Halo 5 has had a very interesting set of marketing campaigns of late It's throwing a lot of ideas out there, with teasers claiming Master Chief to be traitor, the dual trailers that swapped him and Agent Locke and, of course, HUNT the TRUTH. This new TV spot adds to that certainly It claims that Master[...]

I really can't wait to see what they do with the series going forward too, as it is quite well documented that I adore their work on Halo 4. Halo 5: Guardians is on the horizon too, and it seems there are serious plans in place for the future In a magazine called The Ultimate Guide[...]

In Halo 5, we are going to be taking over two fireteams through out the campaign's story We've  already met Agent Locke's team, but now it is time to see Master Chief and his Spartans in action. This new video introduces you to Blue Team It seems Chief is on some kind of romp after the[...]

My admiration for Hunt the Truth is well documented. Not only did we get to talk with showrunner Noah Eichen just last week, but I've been championing it

The lore was certainly messy, but its central thesis was sound. That is why I'm so excited to see what 343 bring to the table with Halo 5 Telling the story about two teams of four people means the focus is going to be much broader across more characters It's pretty experimental for the franchise and[...]

The audio series, which started earlier this year, is part of the marketing for the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians However, to end the description there would be somewhat of a betrayal of how good this series is. The first season of the podcast released 10 to 20 minute episode over 13 weeks, following fictional war journalist[...]

Giving players the choice of what game and game type they want before starting a match helps to make sure people aren't playing stuff they don't want to play. Well, that is going out the window in Halo 5 343 head Josh Holmes confirmed over Twitter that instead everything will run from a rotation. @GDO_TWITS No voting or[...]

I'm excited for Halo 5, more than I think I realized The franchise remains one of my most beloved, and I can't wait to see what 343 do with the power of the Xbox One. This little delight really helped cement that the Xbox One exclusive is pretty close now too Last night, Microsoft, released the[...]

One of the biggest mysteries in the Halo lore, which is a universe surrounded in mystery, is what does John 117 look like? The Master Chief has always kept his helmet on, and you might not be shocked to hear that that won't change in Halo 5. What might have tipped people off they we may[...]

Big Team Battle is one of the most, if not the most popular game modes in Halo Multiplayer. The huge firefights can get pretty crazy, and you are never

There has been a big hubbub recently surrounding the news that Halo 5 wasn't going to feature split-screen multiplayer The series was built on the back of the feature, and I'm sure you could make a compelling argument that the it wouldn't have been as big without it  That's why some fans feel quite miffed[...]

That man has now been given the reigns to Halo 5, and you can listen to some of the material he has done right here This leaked on the menus of the multiplayer beta for those who still had it installed on their Xbox Ones, since it was still updating That is a pretty big[...]

I know here in the UK, most of the games have the less severe 16 rating, but in the US, you've had to be an adult to buy the game. Well Halo 5: Guardians is going to break that mold It has been revealed that the title will get a T rating by the ESRB (via NeoGAF)[...]

It was taught, but meaningful expansion that tried to humanise Master Chief in a way he hadn't been before. Well, GamesRadar are reporting the Halo 5's campaign will be twice as long as its predecessor The last game took around 8 hours to complete for reference What's even crazier is the fact that the game was[...]

More Halo 5 At E3 in June, we saw how the co-op work in the story mode will work, as well as the new multiplayer mode Warzone. This month for the Gamescom conference, we were treated to more focus on multiplayer, and particularly on e-sports Here is a game that was "shoutcasted" and shows off a[...]

You could probably make a convincing argument that the series wouldn't be as big as it is today without it. That is why the loyal community are up in arms at the moment that Halo 5 won't support the feature 343 have now spoken about it by way of a post on Halo Waypoint Studio head[...]

There has been a bit of a storm in a tea cup brewing on the internet regarding the Halo 5: Guardians Limited Collector's Edition recently While the package comes with a lot of extras, one thing it doesn't is a physical copy of the game Instead you previously would be relegated to a digital code to[...]

I think 343 are taking the narrative in incredibly interesting places, and I seriously hope Halo 5 builds on that good work. Speaking at a panel today down in San Diego, narrative designer on the game Morgan Lockhart talked about how that story is currently being structured and it sounds interesting She encourages fans to take their[...]

I really adored the Hunt the Truth podcast. The fictional podcast, which takes a lot of cues from Serial, was a great bit of world building in the Halo

I really was impressed. It seems Halo 5 is going to follow that trend too In an interview with Kotaku, 343 head Josh Holmes said: There's a part in the game where I have teared up On top of that creative director on the project, Tim Longo added: We have a lot of surprises in the campaign when it comes[...]

There are sure to be a ton of pretty neat special editions out this year, with such a packed holiday. For me Halo 5 is probably one of the most important releases and one of the ones I am most excited about I loved 4 a whole lot, so seeing where the next goes is high[...]

Halo 5 is probably Xbox's most prestigious and important title this year, So it's fitting that they opened theie E3 Press Conference with gameplay And Spoilers it looks really gorgeous.
