Halo: The Master Chief Collection is coming to PC

Delerious · Mar 13, 2019

Very much looking forward to this! I've never been much into FPS games, but Halo is one of my exceptions.

What I want to know is, why is an XBL account required? Yes, I know it's free, but why isn't Steam DRM enough? But hey, the no. of reasons to own an Xbox just went down to zero

Microsoft's latest episode of Inside Xbox is here, bringing with it the exciting news promised last week for Halo: The Master Chief Collection. After years of waiting, PC fans will be able to experience the game. Microsoft's team promises that this won't just be a "port", instead making sure the game runs as well as possible on the platform. FOV slider, ultrawide support, 4K HDR, and mouse and keyboard support were mentioned. Each game would roll out one by one in order of chronological release. Halo Reach will also be included eventually on both PC and Xbox One. Ruffian Games and Splash Damage will be assisting 343 with creating the PC version. No release date window was given.

It also WILL be coming to Steam.

About damn time they brought this game to PC in full.

Eyyy, that's a pleasant surprise, lmao. Been wanting to check out the Halo series, but never wanted to buy an Xbox for just that, so now I don't need to worry too much.

They already admit up front that only one of the games will be available when it launches on the service at first. Bet they'll want another $80 for each game to be unlocked, depending on how many left-over Bungie douche-bro's are still at 343.

but given that 343 has never released a PC game? I'm already anticipating the worst of the possible PC gaming sins. Everything including but not limited to:

20fps lock
zero customization options whatsoever
crash unless a controller is plugged in
crash unless specs match or are better than base xbox one
day one patch is 3tb

Great! I'm gonna marathon the shit out of this game. Goodbye sunlight!

So there was an ama on reddit for it https://old.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/b2yhk8/mcc_pc_halo_reach_and_halo_insider_ama/, there's probably a better organised list somewhere.

But looking to support uncapped fps, will have fov sliders etc, all the things you would expect. Will work on windows 7 which is suprising. Crossplay between win 10 store and Steam, crossplay with consoles being looked into to. Play anywhere being looked into, but nothing confirmed yet.
