HALO: COMBAT EVOLVED ANNIVERSARY

In 2001, Halo: Combat Evolved changed the way we played video games and set in motion the story of the Master Chief, Cortana, and a mysterious artificial world called Halo. Now, after a full decade of technological innovation, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary presents the original campaign, reimagined and remastered, alongside seven multiplayer map remakes from Halo's history.

HEROES NEVER DIE

HIGH-DEFINITION HALO

KINECT

INTEGRATION

Through a specialized software, provided by Cortana and embedded in the Master Chief's MJOLNIR Mark V armor, your suit will actively scan and analyze nearby objects, both animate and inanimate, upon voice command, storing retrieved data for later review. With your Xbox 360 Kinect Sensor active, say "Analyze" when near an object of interest, and then say "Scan" to collect intel on that object, returning later to the game's Library for a populated data entry.
