Halo 5: Guardians E3 2015 Warzone Preview – When you think of Xbox, usually the first game that comes to mind is Halo. This is the biggest franchise under the Xbox banner, one of the greatest first-person shooters in existence, and an undeniable blockbuster that manages to wow fans every time.
So it’s only right that fans everywhere are excitedly awaiting the Halo 5: Guardians’ October 27th release date. We got a chance to sit down with some folks at 343i for a hands-off demo of the game, and what we learned was quite impressive.
During their presentation they broke down each of the three major components of the Halo 5: Guardiansexperience: campaign, standard multiplayer, and the all new Warzone mode. Each has received an unprecedented level of attention that enables all three components to feel like a complete Halo experience. No one thing is better than the others and all are absolutely massive in scale.
In order to make things a bit easier, we are going to cover each of the three components in their own section. Not only will this make it easier to follow, but it will also show just how focused they were on creating something that was new and can be loved by die-hard fans. We’ll also cover the differences between the red and blue team.
For years, the team in charge of Halo have wanted to create what is now Warzone, but were too restricted by technological limitations. That is no longer the case due to the power of the Xbox One. For the uninitiated, Warzone is a mode that takes everything great about the Halo series and throws it all together for one intense multiplayer session.
A 24 player battle (two teams of 12) set on the largest multiplayer maps (some more than four times the size of the largest standard multiplayer maps). But it isn’t just size that Warzone is bringing to the Halo 5: Guardiansmultiplayer experience. These are battles in every sense of the word. Not only will players have to worry about the enemy team, but AI enemies will also be on the offensive. These are neutral aliens who will not hesitate to eliminate any Spartan on the battlefield, no matter what team they are a part of.
