The announcement of Halo: Campaign Evolved was another major step in Microsoft’s new direction, so perhaps it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Halo 2 and Halo 3 are getting the same treatment. At least, that’s what a notable Halo insider is saying.
Halo Leaks has the information, tweeting out that both Halo 2 and Halo 3 are also being remade in the same fashion – sprinting, no multiplayer.
“Halo 2 & Halo 3 are being remade, yes they will have sprint. No multiplayer, only campaign. Full remakes,” said Halo Leaks.
However, there is some confusion as Halo Leaks also said: “It’s possible they’re using Halo Campaign Evolved to judge whether a Halo 2 & 3 remake would be viable, but this is just guessing.”
This slightly contradicts his earlier wording, which suggested the remakes are already underway. His wording here would indicate they have not underway just yet.
As to why the remakes do not feature the series’ legendary multiplayer, Halo Leaks claims that it’s because Halo Studios wants everyone to play Halo 7’s multiplayer.
To my mind, this also indicates that Microsoft has no intention of porting Halo: Master Chief Collection over to PlayStation as that would conflict with their desire to focus everyone onto Halo 7’s multiplayer.
Speaking of which, Halo Leaks also claims to have some information about the next game, saying that he believes the next game’s campaign and multiplayer won’t launch alongside each other. Halo Infinite did the same thing, with only a month or so between the free-to-play multiplayer launching and the campaign coming out.
