The Ring Reopens: Halo’s First Campaign Returns Rebuilt

Halo: Campaign Evolved has officially launched, rebuilding the original Halo: Combat Evolved campaign with modern visuals, updated cinematics, refined controls and redesigned audio.

The remake includes the ten missions from the original campaign alongside Operation: METEORITE, a completely new three-mission story developed for this release. The additional campaign takes place one year before the events of the first Halo and follows Master Chief and Sergeant Johnson during a secret UNSC operation aboard a Covenant research vessel.

Operation: METEORITE introduces new locations, enemy variants and weapons from across the Halo series. Players will fight alongside UNSC forces, enter Covenant-controlled areas and face new threats such as the Brute Berserker.

The expanded arsenal includes nine additional weapons from later Halo games. Players can also hijack enemy vehicles and, for the first time in the original campaign, take control of a fully drivable Wraith tank.

Halo: Campaign Evolved supports solo play, two-player split-screen cooperation on consoles and four-player online co-op. Cross-play and cross-progression are available across Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, Steam and PlayStation 5.

Optional Skull modifiers provide additional replay value by changing weapons, enemies and other mission conditions. The game is also available through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.

By combining the complete original campaign with a new story arc, expanded combat options and cross-platform multiplayer, Halo: Campaign Evolved offers both returning players and newcomers a modern way to experience the beginning of Master Chief’s journey.
