Halo Studios has announced **Halo: Campaign Evolved**, a remake of the iconic first-person shooter that started it all. Scheduled for release in 2026, this remake offers improved visuals, updated cinematics, and new content, bringing the original Halo experience to modern audiences.
In addition to launching on Xbox and PC, **Halo: Campaign Evolved** will mark a significant milestone for the franchise: its debut on PlayStation with a release for the PS5. This expansion to a new platform opens up the Halo universe to a broader audience than ever before.
The announcement came during the Halo World Championships, where the game was described as a “faithful yet modernized remake” of **Halo: Combat Evolved**. True to its name, **Campaign Evolved** will focus exclusively on the original game’s Campaign mode, delivering a refined and immersive single-player experience.
One of the exciting new additions includes three prequel missions featuring Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson, adding depth to the storyline and giving fans fresh content to explore. The game will also support both split-screen co-op and online co-op, allowing up to four players to team up and enjoy the campaign together.
Another first for the Halo series is the game’s development: **Halo: Campaign Evolved** was built entirely using Unreal Engine 5, setting it apart from previous titles in the franchise. This technology upgrade promises enhanced graphics and performance.
Furthermore, the release on PS5 marks the first time a Halo game will ship on a rival platform, signaling a new era for the beloved series.
Stay tuned for more updates on **Halo: Campaign Evolved** as its 2026 release approaches!
