343 Industries' Studio Head Kiki Wolfkill and Franchise Director Frank O'Connor have spoken about fan reaction to Halo 5: Guardians, and their plans for Halo 6.
When Halo 5 was released back in 2015, it was well received by critics, however there was some fan outcry over the relative lack of Master Chief in the main campaign. O'Connor and Wolfkill acknowledged this in a recent interview with GamesTM magazine (via WCCFTech).
"We very much realized that people wanted Master Chief's story of Halo 5," said O'Connor. "We definitely marketed in a way that we hoped was going to bring surprise, but for some fans and certainly fans of Master Chief, it was a huge disappointment because they wanted more Chief."
"It wasn’t that surprising to me," O'Connor continued, "but the volume of ‘give us more Chief’ at the end of Halo 5 was significant and so I think if anything he’s slightly more important now than he has ever been, certainly to our franchise."
The focus for the franchise now will not be on bringing in new characters or expanding the number of playable characters. Instead, 343 will be "making the world a little bit more realistic and compelling."
So it sounds as though we'll be getting to solely play Master Chief in Halo 6. The game hasn't officially been announced yet, however it is definitely on the way.
