I thought this Halo 2 demo was lost to time, but 20+ years later, I can finally play it this weekend — and you can, too
In just a few days, we’re approaching the 20th anniversary of Halo 2, Bungie’s cherished sequel to their original sci-fi first-person shooter game that launched Microsoft’s iconic Xbox series and became one of Xbox Live’s early multiplayer sensations. It’s undeniably among the best games ever released on Xbox and one of the most impactful titles across all gaming history. Remarkably, a demo of this classic game, believed to have been lost, will be available for us to play this coming weekend.
