The next instalment in the Halo series will be making its way to Xbox One in the not-too-distant future. 343 Industries has confirmed that Halo 5: Guardians will be making its way to the console in fall of 2015. Bonnie Ross, General Manager, 343 Industries said that the next version of the game “is a bigger effort than Halo 4” and that more will be revealed at the Xbox E3 2014 Media Briefing on June 9.
\n
Saying that “Halo isn’t simply a perennial game franchise, it’s a part of the Xbox platform itself”, Ross says that Halo 5 will take “full advantage of the Xbox One’s hardware and ecosystem to create worlds and experiences worthy of next-gen”.
\n
This is a game that is going to be built from the ground up and is being described as a ” massive and exciting project”.
\n
“It’s a game that will hopefully demonstrate the talent, learnings and abilities of the 343 Industries team. A game that will incorporate the things we learned from Halo 4 about technology, aesthetics, performance and scale — and perhaps more importantly, understanding and embracing a community of gamers who love what lies at the heart of this game, and the limitless potential of the Halo universe.”

This is a going to be a big year for the Halo franchise as the Steven Spielberg headed television series airs, but it is the game itself that will be the crowning glory.
