Halo 6 Writing Has Already Begun, “Serious, Real Planning” Going On

4.7
343 Industries’ Halo 5: Guardians is roughly a month away but the developer is already making plans for the sequel.

According to franchise development director Frank O’Connor in conversation with GamesRadar, “We do kind of know what’s going to happen in the next game pretty well at this point. We’re doing serious, real planning and even some writing on the next game already, and that’s a luxury – we’ve never been in that position before.”

We do know that Halo 4, the first game in the franchise to be developed by 343 Industries after Bungie’s departure, was set to begin The Reclaimer Trilogy. This would have included Halo 5 and Halo 6 but is now a saga. It’s very much possible that things with Master Chief don’t end so easily even with Halo 6.

Halo 5: Guardians releases on October 27th for Xbox One so we’ll have some idea of the direction 343 Industries is going in. What are your thoughts on the franchise at this point? Let us know in the comments.

I don't think Halo will ever end for a while.

_Skittle I can see the Halo series lasting for a long time, has to be by far the most known Xbox title ever.


When people think of Xbox, one of the most common things that is thought about is Halo. Halo was a huge factor in many people coming to the Xbox console.

Dang. Hard at work killing a series that should have ended when bungie wanted it to.
Prequels and things that support story are fine, but no forward progress should have been made.
The multiplayer as strayed so far from what the original 3 games created that it is starting to feel like every other first person shooter.
