These games wont be out until the next console releases.  2026 or 2027 probably at the earliest.

Series S will be supported for years to come.

Nice, Halo with stutter. Unreal Engine is a MISTAKE

Rofl, like that’s going to change the state of Failo.

Horizon has its own engine and is one of the best looking games ever, and has a 60fps and 120fps mode plus look at Death Stranding 2. Making your own engine >> unreal 5 if you have the means and budget.

I think that the version of the engine that these games will ship on, probably 5.6 or 5.7 at least, might actually help.  CDProjectRED is also working with Epic to make improvements to the engine to handle large open worlds.. so hopefully that fixes some of the bullshit in the future.

Halo was always a sandbox not an open world. So it might have sprawling environments and not be a true open world.

In an alternate universe we got an ODST style game from MachineGames on id Tech. 😪

ODST was balls. Atmosphere aside it sucked.

That's irrelevant.. they're both large open areas that require better asset streaming.

 

Also, since they're moving to Unreal Engine, it's likely that The Coalition will be helping them out on the technical side of things.  That's a plus at least.

Not even surprised. We've known for a while that their in-house engine is a trash and a mess to work with.

No, 2&3 were peak Halo. They’ve made trash and are a trash developer.
