I Played Halo: Campaign Evolved... Here are my Thoughts

I recently had the chance to play the next game in the Halo franchise...Halo: Campaign Evolved. This video is my first impressions of the game and how I'm feeling about the project so far. Topics under discussion are the art style, aesthetic, faithfulness to the original, gameplay changes, sprint, performance and technical issues, story mode, lack of multiplayer, Halo launching on PS5, and design intentionality especially in regards to toggling core base mechanics.

Halo Campaign Evolved is developed by Halo Studios, formerly 343 Industries and published by Microsoft. It is scheduled to release in 2026 for Xbox, PC, PS5, Steam. It is a remake o the single player portion of Halo Combat Evolved which originally released in 2001 and had an Anniversary Edition release in 2011.

It is the follow up to Halo Infinite and the first Halo project to utilize Unreal Engine 5 for development.
