"Halo 6," despite the fans clamoring for its release, still doesn't have a definite launch date. After all, on this forum thread, a user claiming to be an industry insider said that the sequel will be revealed by 2018.
However, after his claims of "Halo 5" getting a PC version were debunked by PC Gamer, this bold claim might not be as trustworthy anymore. As such, a lot of people can only hope for another sequel for this highly acclaimed game.
Fans are instead focusing on the things confirmed by Microsoft such as "Halo Wars 2," which will be released by Feb. 21, 2017. The announcement was made during the company's E3 press conference, and its timeline is set immediately after the events in "Halo 5." This is definitely something players will look forward to, especially those who played the first game.
As it stands, this sequel to the 2007 game "Halo Wars" will feature a fresh perspective in the series' traditional first-person combat by giving its players an aerial view while controling human and alien forces in an RTS battle-style of gaming. The newest trailer for this game shows humans fighting against a new race of aliens, called "The Banished," led by a brilliant yet angry monkey-looking general.
The "Halo" head studio, 343 Industries, will develop this game, but according to The Verge, this game will receive assistance from the British studio The Creative Assembly. The latter is famous for their "Total War" games, which will certainly add depth to the strategic aspect of the upcoming "Halo Wars" game.
"Halo Wars 2" is still almost months away, but the same article points out that players will be able to get a taste of what the game has to offer. This is because 343 Industries will be hosting a beta that will go live right after Microsoft's keynote closes.
