Ever since Microsoft's legendary sci-fi FPS series Halo first debuted on the original Xbox console nearly 25 years ago, the shooter has never been released on any platform other than Xbox and PC. In 2026, though, that's changing with the launch of Halo: Campaign Evolved — an Unreal Engine 5 remake of that original game — on PS5 as well as the aforementioned systems.
It's no exaggeration to say this will be a landmark release for Microsoft and Xbox, given that Halo has been its flagship console exclusive for nearly all of the latter's history. For the team at Halo Studios (formerly 343 Industries), though, it's viewed as an opportunity to grow Halo as a franchise, and a chance to connect and reconnect both new and veteran players.
