Halo players rejoice!
Halo: Reach has officially joined Halo: The Master Chief Collection on Xbox Game Pass and Steam. Get excited because the game is now available to play in stunning 4K, nine years after its original launch.
With Halo: Reach, players can experience the heroic story of Noble Team, a group of Spartans, who through great sacrifice and courage, saved countless lives in the face of impossible odds. The planet, Reach, is humanity’s last line of defence between the encroaching Covenant and their ultimate goal, the destruction of Earth. If it falls, humanity will be pushed to the brink of destruction.
If you’re itching to jump into the action now, there are a variety of ways to play across Xbox Game Pass, Steam, and Xbox One.
