Halo: Campaign Evolved Launches on July 28th, Early Access Starts July 23rd – Rumor

by

There’s been talk about a release of Halo: Campaign Evolved before September, but it now looks like it might come out even earlier. Reports suggest the game will launch on July 28th for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Players who pre-order the game could get access as early as July 23rd.

So, this cool Halo leaker, grunt.api on Twitter, found some potential release date info hidden right in the game’s API! They posted a GIF of a comet with this weird math problem – something about EA and OR. Turns out, the community figured out ‘EA’ likely means ‘early access’ and ‘OR’ stands for the ‘official release.’ After doing the calculations, we think we’ve got a possible timeline! Plus, that comet in the GIF? Everyone thinks it’s a nod to the emblem on the Fanta skin that’s coming to the game. It’s all pretty exciting!

While Microsoft and Halo Studios haven’t officially confirmed these details or announced a specific release date beyond 2026, reports suggest the game is now fully playable, including its three new prequel missions. The development team is currently focused on polishing the game, and if recent rumors about a July release are accurate, it might be further along than expected.

We expect to see Halo: Combat Evolved at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 7th, right before a deep dive into Gears of War: E-Day. Keep checking back for the latest news, and you can find details about the rumored roles of ODSTs and Brutes here.
