This is the latest in our series of REQ blogs in which we shed light on the new Requisition (REQ) System in Halo 5: Guardians. The REQ System provides players with a steady stream of rewards for engaging in Halo 5 multiplayer.

In today’s blog I want to talk in more detail about the REQ economy and tuning, and let you know what to expect when your multiplayer career begins on October 27. Continue reading

Halo Community Update Forging Ahead

This is a reblog from Halo Waypoint: 

This week, you learned more of what’s to come in Halo 5: Guardians, and saw new sneak peeks at Halo: The Fall of Reach. You’ve listened as Maya’s situation rapidly escalated from bad to worse in the latest episode of Hunt the Truth. You’ve joined us in the celebration that Halo 5 has gone gold, which means that everything is just beginning. Not just for you, but for us as well. This week, we’ll take a closer look at Halo: The Fall of Reach – The Animated Series, more new Forge tricks, the upcoming MCC update, and more. Let’s get into the details.

THAT’S OUR BOY

If you aren’t yet familiar with Elysium City Primary Education Facility No. 119, or the origins of subject Number-117, you’re in luck, and you’ve come to the right place.

The animated epic releases on launch day, and since we’re getting awfully close to that date, I grabbed some time from Executive Producer Kiki Wolfkill to get the latest. Continue reading

Greetings! You all just keep showing back up every week, don’t you? Welp, if you’re gonna stick around, we might as well take a look at some story-related Halo goodness together! Last week, we took a closer look at some of the alien vehicles you might see employed by Swords of Sanghelios and Covenant forces in Halo 5: Guardians. This week, we thought it would only be fair to give humanity’s eager engineers the same attention.

Before we get started, I’d like to take a moment to celebrate Halo 5: Guardians recently going gold. It’s been a herculian effort by the entire team at the studio, and we’re absolutely thrilled to be so tantilizingly close to being about to share the experience with all of you. And with that out of the way, let’s get to the task at hand! Continue reading
