"Good For Halo, Terrible For Xbox"

Story Highlight
  • Fans don’t seem pleased with recent reports of Halo heading to PlayStation.
  • They argue that this would feel like a huge betrayal.
  • Those in favor of a PlayStation launch believe a bigger player base would benefit the franchise in the long run.

Xbox has opened the floodgates for third-party releases with a small experiment of releasing four first-party titles on PS5. Following these events, Indiana Jones and Doom: The Dark Ages have been announced for PS5, while Phil Spencer has confirmed more will follow later.

Recent reports have even suggested that Halo will be coming to PlayStation for the first time. However, fans don’t support this idea, with many believing it would be a terrible move for Xbox.

Why it matters: The Halo franchise has been on Xbox for over two decades and is currently a major part of the brand’s core identity.

Fans on Reddit recently discussed the possibility of Halo: The Master Chief Collection on PS5.

Many fans feel that this would be a major misstep for Xbox. Some pointed out that Halo should only launch on the PS5 if PlayStation begins releasing a few of its first-party titles on Xbox.

Others stated that they would feel betrayed. Many fans also raised the possibility that such a move could permanently damage the brand, leading to a complete victory for PlayStation.

Good for Halo, terrible for Xbox.

While most people on the thread are clearly not too fond of this idea, certain users suggested that this move would lead to a more healthy player base for Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

Since 343 Industries no longer supports these remasters, a PS5 release could even encourage the team to return and offer new updates for those who prefer the classic Halo experience.

While all signs point to the Master Chief eventually landing on PlayStation, it’s still too early to say anything. 343 Industries is said to be working on the next mainline entry, so plans are unlikely to be set in stone this early.

However, the next major Xbox releases on the PS5 could be the deciding factor. These include Black Ops 6, Indiana Jones, and more.
