343 Industries has shared new information regarding updates coming soon to Halo 5: Guardians, Halo Wars 2, and more.
In a recent Halo Livestream, 343 announced that Halo 5 is getting an Overtime content update in November, which will feature 4K upgrades for Xbox One X owners, updated weapon tuning, and the return of the Oddball multiplayer mode. After the launch of the Overtime update, new skins will also be made available.
The content update will also see the introduction of the Local Server app, which will allow Halo 5 players to host a local server on a Windows 10 PC on the same network as Xbox One consoles for low-latency multitplayer matches.
Halo Wars 2 will also receive Xbox One X enhancements. In addition, the strategy game will feature crossplay for Xbox One and Windows 10 PC.
An Xbox Arena mode will also be introduced, allowing players to organize and conduct their own online tournaments. Xbox Arena launched in May, but Arena and Windows 10 crossplay will come to Halo Wars 2 in late October.
Halo: The Master Chief Collection will also get enhancements for Xbox One X, with more details to come.
343 also announced the Halo World Championship 2018, which will have qualifiers in Europe, Australia/New Zealand, Latin America, and North America. The HCS Fall 2017 Finals will take place this weekend and will be streamed on Mixer and Twitch.
Additionally, the Microsoft Store Tournament Program will be expanded so that every Microsoft Store will host Halo 5: Guardians tournaments starting next month. Tournaments will begin November 6 and end March 2018.
Head over to Halo Waypoint for the full list of updates.
Microsoft recently announced 4 new Xbox One S bundles, including one that features Halo: The Master Chief Collection and Halo 5: Guardians.
