Halo dataminers uncover evidence of a PS5 release coming, days after Phil Spencer hinted at the return of "a classic that's been with us since the beginning"

.

Halo could be making a comeback "very soon," according to a well-known dataminer in the Halo community… oh, and it's for a PS5 game.

Halo Infinite will be four years old by the end of this year, and Microsoft has been suspiciously quiet about what used to be its marquee franchise (now that it owns Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, it's no competition). Other than 343 Industries rebranding itself Halo Studios last year, there hasn't been a whiff of a new game and considering how long Microsoft games take from reveal to release these days (I can't believe Fable wasn't at that Xbox Games Showcase either), I'm sure many assumed it'd be a while before we see Master Chief again.
