Halo: Campaign Evolved Brings the Legendary Saga to PS5 in 2026
Now this is something that’s sending shockwaves through the gaming world — Halo is officially coming to PlayStation. Yes, you heard that right. After more than two decades as one of Xbox’s most iconic franchises, “Halo: Campaign Evolved” is set to launch on PlayStation 5 in 2026 . And it’s not just a port — this is a fully rebuilt and modernized version of the original Halo: Combat Evolved campaign that started it all.
The announcement came directly from Brian “ske7ch” Jarrard , the Community Director at Halo Studios, who described it as a moment he’ll never forget. For him — and for millions of fans — Halo has always been more than a game. It’s been a universe of epic sci-fi storytelling, deep friendships formed through late-night co-op sessions, and unforgettable battles fought together. And now, for the first time ever, PlayStation players will be part of that journey too.

So, what can fans expect? “Halo: Campaign Evolved” takes us right back to the beginning — the story that introduced the Master Chief and his AI companion Cortana , as they battled the alien Covenant and uncovered the secrets of the mysterious Halo ring . It’s where the saga began, and now, it’s being brought to life again with stunning high-definition visuals , remastered audio , and completely rebuilt cinematics .
Gameplay has been refined too. Movement, controls, and combat have all been modernized for smoother, faster action. Players will get to experience new depth in every mission, complete with nine additional weapons from across the Halo universe. On top of that, there are three new prequel missions featuring the Master Chief and Sergeant Johnson , diving into events that take place before the original story.
And let’s not forget vehicles — a staple of Halo’s sandbox gameplay. This time, players can hijack enemy rides , including the massive Covenant Wraith tank , for the first time in Halo: CE history. The campaign also includes the largest collection of “Skulls” ever , optional modifiers that remix missions with new twists, randomized enemies, and even humorous effects like confetti explosions from Grunt headshots.
But at its heart, Halo has always been about who you play it with. That’s why the new release features four-player online co-op and two-player couch co-op , complete with cross-play and cross-progression between PS5, Xbox, and PC.
Set for release in 2026 , “Halo: Campaign Evolved” marks a historic moment — one that bridges the gap between gaming worlds that were once rivals. As the Master Chief himself once said, “I think we’re just getting started.”
