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."

If they do something with Reach, it should be proper canon. Me and a buddy were hoping Halo Reach would've been about Red Team, since all of Red Team (vast majority of Spartan II's) went onto the surface of Reach while Blue Team (MC, Linda, James (I think) and maybe some other guy went to get a nav card so the covenant wouldn't acquire it.

Honestly, I'm hoping for another ODST game. I loved the different gameplay of the ODST's. I very much prefer ODST's to the Spartan IV's.

For Halo 5, I hope Palmer becomes an enemy and is killed. She is without a doubt, the most annoying Halo character to me.

I hope they do something with reach again. I actually enjoyed Halo: Reach a lot. They didnt show what Happened to Jun. All he did was get on the ship and left and that was the end of him.
