Halo Campaign Evolved Announced: What It Means For Fans

On this Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down today’s Halo news: a full remake of the original Halo campaign called Halo: Campaign Evolved built in Unreal Engine 5 with 4K visuals, refreshed audio, and returning cast re-recording lines. For the first time, Halo is coming to PlayStation alongside Xbox and PC. The remake adds three new prequel missions, nine series weapons like the Energy Sword and Battle Rifle, modern mechanics such as vehicle hijacking and Skulls, and a big emphasis on four-player co-op with split-screen and cross-play. There’s no competitive multiplayer here, and we talk through why that choice probably makes sense for a UE5 transition and a multi-platform launch.

  • 00:00 The announcement and what “Campaign Evolved” actually is

  • 00:18 Platforms and engine shift to UE5

  • 00:33 Visual and audio overhaul with returning cast

  • 00:58 New prequel missions and added weapons

  • 01:15 Modern mechanics in a classic campaign

  • 01:29 Co-op focus, split-screen, cross-play, and the “golf cart” Warthog seat

  • 01:45 No competitive multiplayer and why that might be

  • 02:00 Read on the strategy: learning UE5 and shipping on PS5

  • 02:16 Nostalgia hit and why this remake still lands for longtime fans

  • This is a ground-up remake of the 2001 campaign, not a visual toggle remaster.

  • Launching on Xbox, PC, and PlayStation marks a major shift for Halo’s future.

  • Three new prequel missions connect Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson.

  • Nine series weapons and vehicle hijacking bring later-game features into CE.

  • Four-player online co-op, two-player split-screen on console, and cross-play are in.

  • No competitive multiplayer keeps the focus on story and co-op.

  • Likely a stepping stone to UE5 across Halo, with lessons for a future mainline entry.

  • “It’s not the Anniversary toggle. This one is built in Unreal Engine 5 and will feel very different.”

  • “For the very first time Halo will be on PlayStation. It’s the end of an era.”

  • “There is no competitive multiplayer. Co-op is where it’s going to be.”

JAME GUNN ON TWITTER“Among those on the slate is Superman. In the initial stages, our story will be focusing on an earlier part of Superman’s life, so the character will not be played by Henry Cavill. But we just had a great meeting with Henry and we’re big fans and we talked about a number of exciting possibilities to work together in the future.” The news may be surprising to fans who expected Cavill to return as the hero, but insiders say that Cavill’s recent Instagram announcement was approved by Warner Bros brass before Gunn and Safran were hired, leading to a change in plans.
