Current Halo trilogy is now a 'saga'

4.6
The Halo series' current Reclaimer Trilogy is now a "saga," a Microsoft representative confirmed with GameSpot during E3.

"While we originally said trilogy, we've actually expanded this to more of a saga, so we don't want to limit the Reclaimer story within a trilogy," the representative explained. The Reclaimer Trilogy was originally set to span from 2012's Halo 4 through the eventual Halo 6.

Xbox head Don Mattrick recently referred to the franchise's E3 showing as "Halo 5." Speaking with GameSpot, Microsoft Game Studios corporate VP Phil Spencer declined to say whether the next Halo game will be a fully fledged sequel or a spinoff in the vein of Halo: Reach.

"It is the next Halo game that we are working on," Spencer told GameSpot. "We will talk more about actually the story arc in the game and how it plays out; we've got more time to talk about that." Whether the next game is Halo 5 or something else, Spencer did note that it will be "a legitimate version of Halo."

Epicsniper72 I agree with yin it is good because there will be more of the halo series


It won't turn out like COD. I know they are two different games but I kinda felt that if Halo began to be released every year it would become repetitive like COD is.


Halo is nothing like COD the game engine is completely different and also i can't wait for the next Halo


Agreed they should just release e Rey year at the same time

I actually typed that whole thing wrong .-.

I meant to say if it starts to be released yearly like COD does, it will seem to get repetitive like COD. I didn't mean that they were the same if that's how it came off.

This is good, because it means Halo should continue on longer than it would have otherwise. Now they can take their time with the story without trying to rush it into three games. I'm excited about that.

Halo 3 will and always will be the last true halo game.
