Microsoft is hinting at a Halo: Combat Evolved remaster, potentially launching in 2026 to coincide with Xbox’s 25th anniversary. Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, alluded to the “return of a classic” during the Xbox Games Showcase, strongly suggesting a refreshed version of the iconic title. While the specific game wasn’t named, the timing aligns perfectly with a major Halo release. This follows last year’s confirmation that multiple Halo projects are being developed using Unreal Engine 5, indicating a significant graphical overhaul is likely in store for this rumored remaster. The Xbox Games Showcase highlighted Microsoft’s strong first-party lineup, further fueling excitement for the future of the Halo franchise.
