Halo: Campaign Evolved

On July 28, we return to the ring that started it all with <a href="https://aka.ms/HCEBuyNow" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Halo: Campaign Evolved</a>. While the original game, Halo: Combat Evolved, launched before Achievements were officially established in the Xbox ecosystem, players in the community have always set goals and found unique ways to challenge themselves.



Now, 25 years later, we’re excited to share the Achievements and Trophies that you will be able to unlock when Halo: Campaign Evolved lands next month.



Assemble your co-op completionist crew with 2-player splitscreen on consoles or a 4-player online Fireteam and enjoy the hunt!

Fiction

Coming in 2027, we are thrilled to announce the next Halo novel being penned by Troy Denning.



Introducing Halo: Fireteam Noble.



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/>



2560. The galaxy remains fractured in the devastating wake of Cortana’s rise and the Created menace, while the Banished war machine relentlessly consolidates power across former Covenant space. To help counter these ongoing and emerging threats to humanity, Spartan Jun-A266—the last surviving member of Noble Team—struggles to forge a new generation of warriors on the hidden UNSC base Anvil Station, even as he battles the ghosts of his own past.



But when a renowned xenoarcheologist is brazenly abducted by a Banished strike team, Jun is pulled back into active operations alongside both old and new allies for a dangerous rescue mission, leading them all deep into hostile territory. Now Jun must confront the burden of survival and decide what it truly means to carry Noble Team’s legacy into a new era of conflict as this desperate mission may hold dire consequences far beyond a single missing civilian….



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/>



We will have more to show of Fireteam Noble over the coming months, including a cover art reveal.



Stay tuned, Spartans!

Renowned for its mix of breathless short-range encounters, stealth opportunities, and intense vehicle combat through memorable scenery such as snowy canyons and subterranean complexes, the original Assault on the Control Room showcased nearly every weapon and vehicle available in Halo: Combat Evolved’s campaign. 



That made it the perfect mission to share with the world. Dive into the fully remade snow-filled wonders of Assault on the Control Room, complete with brand new gameplay enhancements like vehicle boarding and an expanded arsenal, in the full pre-release playthrough embedded above.
