No, Halo 5 wont be joining The Master Chief Collection on PCNot a terrible omission, to be fair.

Not a terrible omission, to be fair.

Sorry, Mister Chief. With testing forHalo 4about to begin for The Master Chief Collection on PC, 343 have once again confirmed that their first game will also be The MCC’s last - with no plans to bring Halo 5 into Captain Motocross' big ol' bundle. It might have a reputation for being a bit rubs, but that’s a weird, Cortana-shaped hold to leave in between the MCC and Infinite’s release next year.

343 posted the reminder inside amassive blog postfor all things John Chief post last week. The good news? Halo 4 is getting a closed beta very, very soon - andlike Halo 3 before it, 343 plan to invite every eligible Xbox Insider into the party. That “flight” should also begin testing for a number of other features, including crossplay between PC and Xbox spacefolks.

After that, though, there’ll be no more major releases planned for The Master Chief Collection on either platform, with 343 noting they’re “sorry to crush your Halo 5 in MCC dreams”. It’s a bit weird, considering theForge half of Halo 5is free to tinker with on PC.

There’s plenty more Halo stuff in that post if you’re into it, mind, including some new lore vids and a peek at a new helmet forHalo: Reachmultiplayer. There’s also yet another brand deal going forHalo Infinite, giving you a purple Halo suit if you eat a bunch of Oreos, I guess? Infinite might’ve beendelayed into 2021, but it’s truly weird to have a better idea of its promotional material than we do of its actualfree-to-playmultiplayer offerings.

Anyway. Halo 4 will likely arrive within the next few months, which is plenty of time to replay objective series high-pointHalo 3: ODST. Thank me later.
