Halo 2 and Halo 3 may also get UE5 remakes

Earlier this month, Microsoft officially announced its next Halo game – Halo: Campaign Evolved, a complete remake of the original Halo campaign in Unreal Engine 5. It sounds like Microsoft won't be stopping there though. 

One Halo-focused leaker, Halo Leaks, claims that Halo 2 and Halo 3 will also be getting campaign remakes. No multiplayer is planned though, which is an odd move, as the early Halo games are often credited for birthing modern online multiplayer for consoles. Halo 3 in particular was massive thanks to its solid official multiplayer modes, alongside the custom maps and modes created using Halo Forge.

Multiplayer will return to Halo eventually with the next mainline installment in the franchise, currently referred to as Halo 7. Microsoft has not yet announced any official plans for the next mainline Halo game.

Like Halo: Campaign Evolved, we should expect to see the Halo 2 and Halo 3 remakes released on PlayStation, the same day they arrive on other platforms like Xbox and PC.

KitGuru Says: If you are an Xbox or PC player, I would strongly recommend just grabbing the Master Chief Collection. Even without a full remake, the older Halo games still hold up well and you'll have full access to all of the single-player and multiplayer modes.
