Halo: Reach releases for Xbox One and PC on December 3

Microsoft will release Halo: Reach for Xbox One and PC on December 3.

343 Industries community director Brian Jarrard announced the release date at Microsoft’s X019 event in London on Thursday.

Following Halo: Reach, the rest of the games included in Halo: The Master Chief Collection will get a staggered release on PC in chronological order (Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST and Halo 4).

All six titles in Halo: The Master Chief Collection can be purchased upfront via the Microsoft Store or Steam for $39.99, with Halo: Reach available on its own for $9.99.

On console, players will be able to get an updated Halo: The Master Chief Collection bundle, including the Halo 3: ODST campaign and Halo: Reach, for the same price.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection is available with Xbox Game Pass.

The PC versions are being developed in partnership with Gears of War co-developer Splash Damage and Ruffian, which is known for its work on the Crackdown series.

“For the team at 343 Industries, the most important and critical element of this project is ensuring that Halo: The Master Chief Collection delivers a true ‘first class’ experience on PC,” Jarrard said in March.

“We’re embarking on a journey with our community to build a PC experience that delivers on PC gamer expectations.”
