What follows is a series of spectacular set-pieces, interesting and amusing chatter between party members. There will also be Forerunner, Promethean, and Covenant forces standing between the two generations of Spartans and their goals. Are you ready to discover what is truly going on?

Excellent multiplayer

Halo 5: Guardians (Xbox One) continues the tradition of excellent, engaging multiplayer which helped make the franchise famous. Enter the Warzone mode, which will test not only your trigger finger, but also tactical acumen. Fight with your 12-player team to be the first one to accumulate 1000 points or destroy your opponents' base, join forces against unexpected bosses and enemy waves, and find out which team is composed of the best Spartans around here.

Electrifying mobility

The new MJOLNIR armors are top notch in terms of providing their users with superhuman mobility. Equipped with multiple thrusters, now your Spartans can jump higher and faster, quickly change their momentum to surprise enemies with an unexpected firing angle, and perform a devastating, if risky, ground pound maneuver to scatter and crush them. Halo 5 adds an outstanding verticality to the conflict, and with the speed of Spartans it makes for exciting, creative gunplay.

4-player cooperative multiplayer

What is better than trusting a well-developed AI to watch your back during the campaign? Gathering three other friends and playing together, of course! Halo V: Guardians lets you experience the epic conflicts and action sequences of the story campaign with up to three other players, taking over the members of Blue Team or Team Osiris. The game adapts its difficulty to the number of active players, providing harder challenges and more numerous foes the more of you are playing. Coordinate to take out powerful bosses, and revive each other should you fall in battle.
