Halo: Campaign Evolved Involves ODSTs, Brutes and New Covenant Faction in Prequel Missions - Rumor
Key Points:
- Halo Studios is continuing development on Halo: Campaign Evolved with no new official updates since its reveal last year, while Rebs Gaming has shared potential new details about upcoming prequel missions.
- The three new prequel missions, set before the main campaign, will focus on Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson, introduce new enemies, and highlight a renewed rivalry between the ODSTs and SPARTANs.
- The missions will feature the Jiralhanae (Brutes), absent in the original game but present in Halo 2, suggesting possible ties to the Halo: Contact Harvest storyline set decades earlier.
- A brand-new, original Covenant faction is reportedly being created from scratch, representing a significant investment by Halo Studios leadership.
- Despite criticism of the gameplay reveal, Halo Studios is reusing Banished Covenant and UNSC Marine models from Halo Infinite for these missions, with no plans to revert to the original Combat Evolved art style.
