It's been an interesting launch period for Halo: Campaign Evolved.
It's been an interesting launch period for Halo: Campaign Evolved.
The short version
- Despite reviewing well , the game has failed to sell particularly well on PS5 , where the low-effort Black Ops 1 and 2 ports seemingly outsold the Microsoft title 16-to-1.
- After the game shipped, multiple contract positions were terminated , and players have been taking umbrage with some of the mechanical and artistic changes to the game.
- The latest criticism for Campaign Evolved comes from Halo co-creator and 'father of Master Chief' Marcus Lehto, who seems irritated by the changes developer Halo Studios has made to the ancient Forerunner technology that so much of the game is based on.

Quick primer: the Halo ring you land on is actually one massive technological construct, created by a now-extinct species of alien. Lehto, it seems, is unimpressed by the changes Halo Studios has made to how we view their physical legacy.
Why it matters
"While Forerunner tech was metal (not stone), it was also ancient, vast, alive, and a tomb to the horrors that lurked within." he writes in a tweet .
