Halo

As you can see from the picture, It's Christmas time in Halo-land too, with Microsoft and 343 Industries announcing a bunch of goodies for the holidays, like the double-XP period for Halo 5 and The Master Chief Collection across all platforms and some Halo Infinite info.

Halo Reach has been released on Steam but the system requirements there don't include the updated minimum which was provided by 343 Industries on release. Apparently, we can run the game with integrated graphics, at 30 frames per second.

Halo: Reach's countdown clock on Steam is approaching zero. PC players will be able to purchase the DLC soon. The Halo: The Master Chief Collection will also arrive to Steam in its entirety during 2020.

Halo: Master Chief Collection initial download size on PC has been revealed on Microsoft Store. The download which includes only Halo Reach at the moment is 24.94 GB.

Halo: Reach was quite a gorgeous game back when it launched but PC players wouldn't really know, seeing as how it was an Xbox 360 exclusive. Now, Microsoft released some new screenshots that show the game in all its overhauled glory.

Halo Reach PC test is officially underway and according to the devs, some players are illegally distributing the game just after the release. Those who download or play the illegal copy of Halo Reach beta could have their accounts banned.

Halo developer 343 Industries confirmed that if everything goes according to plan, the first closed beta test for Halo: Reach will start next week, exclusively for a small subsection of Halo Insider members. This beta will run only on PC.

If someone told you a 2001 Xbox game would be downgraded for the purpose of adding it to more modern and powerful devices, would you believe it possible? That is exactly what happened with Halo Combat Evolved, following a Gearbox port.

Halo: Master Chief Collection announcement brought excitement to many PC owners but they didn't really know when to expect the games to pop up. Now it turns out that Halo: Reach will be the first one to come, with the rest during 2019.

Microsoft have rolled out the Halo Insider Program, a new way in which fans can aid 343 Industries and help shape the entire franchise. If you do choose to sign up, though, you will be bound by the non-disclosure agreement so beware.
