Will Halo 6 be an Improvement on Halo 5?

With both Sony and Nintendo maintaining their strong positions in the world of console gaming, the pressure is now on Microsoft to deliver some new exciting titles in order to regain its place alongside the two mentioned companies. It was expected to happen during Microsoft’s Showcase on June 10th, when Halo 6 was rumored to be announced.

What to expect from Halo 6

The new game of the Halo series is expected to be a continuation of Halo 5. It is very likely that we will be able to start exactly where the former game left us. As the final part of the trilogy which started with Halo 4, Halo 6 will keep Cortana as a main villain and the leader of an AI rebellion, whose goal is to reclaim the galaxy by eliminating the biological life.

Criticized for its lacks in the storyline, the Halo series will have a chance to make up for the past shortcomings with the release of Halo 6.

There is a lot to improve

Considering the fact that both Halo 4 and Halo 5 were not really highly rated by fans, the Halo series has to improve a lot in order to go back to its past glory. After all, it used to be one of the most popular online multiplayer games. Nowadays, with the growing fame of the battle royale type of games, Halo 6 has to be a really good title if it wants to reclaim the top spot in the shooter world. As impossible as it sounds, there is a chance that Halo 6 will be a success, knowing that Microsoft really needs it.

When to expect Halo 6

It is rather unlikely for Halo 6 to be launched in 2018, considering the great amount of work that has to be done. However, the next year is a safe bet. Halo 6 is expected to be released on Game Pass and PC just like other Xbox exclusives. So it looks like Halo will return to PC for the first time since Halo 2.

Halo 6 Release Date Update – 4k Graphics and Next-Gen Gameplay Features

Halo is one of the most popular game franchises in the world and it should come as no surprise that everyone is waiting for the sixth installment to be announced. However, Halo fans started doubting that a new game might arrive ever since Microsoft revealed Halo: Fireteam Raven. Fortunately, Brian Jarrard who is the community manager for Halo decided to reassure everyone that Halo 6 is not affected by the newly revealed title.

Halo: Fireteam Raven

The first thing we need to mention is that Halo: Fireteam Raven is an arcade game. Therefore, Microsoft is just looking to capitalize on the popularity that Halo benefits from and generate a profit from the arcade community. Nonetheless, Halo fans are still worried that Microsoft has decided to drop Halo 6 in favor of the Halo: Fireteam Raven.

Halo Community Manager Speaks Out

Halo fans started posting on the community forum about how Microsoft doesn’t want to release a new title and seeing this, Brian Jarrard decided to let everyone know that they don’t have anything to worry about.

“Fireteam Raven has zero impact on the 343 development team which has already been working on the next console game. Fireteam Raven is built by an external arcade developer. Just like the Halo books or toys aren’t being created instead of the next Halo game. Plenty to go around” said Brian Jarrard over Twitter.

Halo 6 4k Graphics and Next-Gen Gameplay Features

Considering that the most recent Halo title is Halo 5: Guardians and that it was released back in October 2015, we think it’s safe to assume that Microsoft might be adding the finishing touches Halo 6 at the moment.

In addition, Xbox One X is already available for purchase and this gaming system gives the developers the ability to introduce next-gen gameplay features and 4K graphics without having to worry about frame drops.
