And so is Master Chief himself

During last night’s The Game Awards show with games announcements man Geoff Keighley, a different Geoff actually arrived to deliver one of the reveals. Geoff Ramsey, one of the voices from ye oldeHalo-based Red Vs Blue web series, popped out in character as Grif of the red team to announce a new capture the flag map forFortniteinside a very familiar canyon.

Here’s the reveal for ya, featuring Red Vs Blue characters Grif and Sarge meeting up with Ninja, that Fortnite player you might be familiar with. They’re all gabbing inside the Blood Gulch map from classic Halo recreated inside Fortnite. The first season of Red Vs Blue that you “probably watched about ten years ago” (help, my entire 20s just flashed before my eyes) was set inside Blood Gulch, thus the cameo, you see.
