Halo: MCC Update To Launch In April, First Look At Halo 3: ODST

4.7
Two weeks ago, Halo fans were happy to receive the latest game update for Halo: The Master Chief Collection, which had notable effects on the game’s online matchmaking and party system. But just as those still invested in the collection know, developer 343 Industries is aware that there’s still more to be done.

“We have another content update coming in April,” 343 Industries Executive Producer Dan Ayoub wrote in a recent Halo Waypoint blog update, “and we’ll provide more details as we get closer to launch.” Ranked play and continuous online lobbies are among a few of the things at the top of the wish list within community, but fans will have to sit tight before finding out if either will be addressed in April’s update. In the meantime, the studio has a few server updates planned in order to help improve the experience in between patches, says Ayoub.

That’s all well and good, but what’s up with those Halo 3: ODST and Halo 2 Anniversary Relic remakes that were promised to Halo fans affected by The Master Chief Collection’s troubled launch? Both were touched upon in today’s update.

“Below you can see a little sneak peek of our latest progress,” wrote Ayoub. “Additionally, our test and community teams have been running daily playtests on Relic to hammer on the map as much as possible. As we finish things up, we’ll be sharing much more and providing details on launch dates soon.”

Why remake one of the shit Halo of them all? (in my opinion) I'd rather Halo Wars 2 or Halo Wars remake than ODST. I wouldn't be surprised if its still broken after this update.

ODST was not so good, but halo3 was awesome :)

Halo 3 ODST was alright but sure not the best Halo.

People played ODST? hahaha

MCC was a major letdown for me.

Really hope they get some more updates to fix bugs soon.

ODST was an awesome campaign though. Cool to see this.

TH9 I really need to get Halo MCC. From the way its worded, it sounds like ODST is only available to current owners of the game. I liked playing H2 at my friends on MCC, very fun getting my butt kicked again xD


It's free to those that played the game before December 12th (I think its the 12th) and will prob be like $10 to everyone else.


Thanks! That's not a bad price

Ugh. ODST is a terribly boring game. Why they didn't give us Reach is beyond me, it being the most played Halo since 3. However, I do have this glimmer of hope that they are working on bringing it over.

I really liked the campaign on halo 3, hopefully they make it as good as it was.
