Current Halo trilogy is now a 'saga'

4.6
The Halo series' current Reclaimer Trilogy is now a "saga," a Microsoft representative confirmed with GameSpot during E3.

"While we originally said trilogy, we've actually expanded this to more of a saga, so we don't want to limit the Reclaimer story within a trilogy," the representative explained. The Reclaimer Trilogy was originally set to span from 2012's Halo 4 through the eventual Halo 6.

Xbox head Don Mattrick recently referred to the franchise's E3 showing as "Halo 5." Speaking with GameSpot, Microsoft Game Studios corporate VP Phil Spencer declined to say whether the next Halo game will be a fully fledged sequel or a spinoff in the vein of Halo: Reach.

"It is the next Halo game that we are working on," Spencer told GameSpot. "We will talk more about actually the story arc in the game and how it plays out; we've got more time to talk about that." Whether the next game is Halo 5 or something else, Spencer did note that it will be "a legitimate version of Halo."

Halo4 Even though I thought Reach didn't have the full Potential of other Halo games, I'd like to see another version of it.


I thought Halo Reach was a complete let down. Didn't really like it at all, it would be nice if they remade it though.


I liked the storyline a lot, just didn't really like the feel. I thought they made it too mainstream to get more sales? Way to make yourself remembered Bungie, the company that f*cked up Halo.

ThisIs50 Halo has been a saga. H3 and H2 for life!


No. It's talking about the reclaimer trilogy which meant Halo 4,5, and 6. Now their will be another one in addition. Probably something like Reach or ODST.

Reach was the last Halo game I played. But I do see what you mean with it not reaching it's full potential, Halo 2 was the best imo. Maybe they could do another Reach type game but take things that people liked from the other games and implement them into that game.

Yeah, I was playing Halo 2 Yesterday with like 6 other people and it was fun. They really need Community Support if they want to make it an outstanding game.
