A new report claims that a skeleton crew at Halo Studios is working on one last big content update for Halo: Campaign Evolved before the team will likely be completely cut and the studio closed. This team is not in contact with Activision, which is now in charge of Halo and building a new team for it. And that might explain why the former stewards of Halo shared a bunch of concept art that allegedly shows ideas for the studio’s sequel to Halo Infinite, which will now never happen. Instead, we got a long wait for whatever Activision is making.
On October 6, reliable Halo insider and reporter Rebs Gaming shared a new video report that claims they’ve heard from their sources that a team of around 30 people who weren’t included in the recent Xbox layoffs is still working on Halo: Campaign Evolved. This small team is reportedly being led by Halo Studios boss Pierre Hintze, and their goal is to help out with the upcoming Halo Fest event while also developing one last free content update for the recently released remake.
According to Rebs, this isn’t some tiny update comprising a few bug fixes and quality-of-life changes, but instead, the current plan is to add Firefight and a Theater Mode to Campaign Evolved. Firefight was a popular horde mode featured in past games like Halo: Reach, and its addition to Campaign Evolved would be awesome, though Rebs does caution that plans could change depending on what the small team can get done.
