Way to go Microsoft! When companies support consumer choice, we all win.

Double dipping for sure!

Ported by Splash Damage...

Hopefully it's better than the Arkham Origins PC port.

They just did the multiplayer disn't they, not the port?

Xbox Live? Does that mean you need to pay for the MP (have gold)?

No

I'll wait till it releases, I wouldnt be surprised if Epic offers a deal.

"a proper PC version". I hope this means zero aim assists on mouse+kb

i'd expect aim assist out but bullet magnetism still in, like destiny 2 pc

ProstatePuncher · Mar 12, 2019

Halo with a decent FOV, at last.

Oh well there it is

That's fine by me, it being on Steam bypasses one of the issues I have with the windows store, the download and updates to the games are done through Steam, there's no risk with the buggy windows store for that, and so I don't mind they do an Uplay with this.

The oXbox Halo 1 and 2 can do LAN multiplayer with the Xbox One version of MCC. I wonder if the PC versions would be able to do multiplayer with the original PC Halo 1 and 2 releases.

ON STEAM?!? I don't have to deal with the MS Store and I can still play this on PC with the bells and whistles????!

GOD.

IS.

REAL.

Anyone here know if the steam version is UWP?

don't know... but the sys requirements just says windows, not windows 10. could be just incomplete.

Ardiloso · Mar 12, 2019

Reach is coming to XBO and soon. All's right with the world.

It doesn't matter, because you can use Steam Input if it's a Steam game.

I'm more concerned about multiplayer. I wouldn't bother if it were against mouse and keyboard users. Just wondered how they handled it with gears and such.

Deleted member 9330 · Mar 12, 2019

Wonder if this means that their other titles currently only on the Windows Store are coming to Steam. That would be pretty hype

Steam is gigantic surprise.

Well it doesn't have any requirements other, so probably placeholder.

Imagine playing Halo on Linux using Steam Proton

with Steam Input

and Steam Workshop Mod support

holy fuck

red731 · Mar 12, 2019

I've... Never expected this. And Steam. Whoa

Oh man...Team SWAT with kb+m...my reflexes are not ready.

Reach first on pc is a big mistake but whatever

No, Xbox One BC can do LAN not MCC

SweetNicole · Mar 12, 2019

I am assuming the release date for Halo Reach will be at SWSX as a reason to watch their tournament.

Pilgrimzero · Mar 12, 2019

Losing Halo was the hardest part of selling my XBox.... and now I no longer have to care!

Reach is phenomenal.

I doubt anything they could offer would move the needle for a giant like Microsoft.

Buff DrinkLots · Mar 12, 2019

Absolutely huge. I hope they sell an absolute ton for un-walling their garden.

They probably want to go by story chronology.

TheUnseenTheUnheard · Mar 12, 2019

Defect said:

Not really. There is a huge audience for Reach.

Scuffed · Mar 12, 2019

Pretty cool. Definitely worth a play through.

Still no glorious Halo 5 unfortunately.

Piccoro · Mar 12, 2019

You guys do know that the MS published Killer Instinct was also released in Steam, right?

ThisIsMyDogKyle · Mar 12, 2019

lol earlier today I was looking up to get Steam Input to work with UWP games in preparation for this, never occurred to me they'd release it on Steam, Thanks Microsoft!

Complicated · Mar 12, 2019

If they have input-based matchmaking you could play Halo 3 with a controller against Xbox and PC controller players without the garbage FOV. Might actually be decent.

Umbrella Carp · Mar 12, 2019

Any bets on release dates? I reckon Reach is Mid April/Early May and Halo CE will be an E3 shadow drop

Welfare · Mar 12, 2019

I wonder if we'll get to see the population splits on Steam. What is truly the most popular Halo?

The next generation of population arguments!

Not the multiplayer lmao

TheUnseenTheUnheard · Mar 12, 2019

I'm going to bet that Halo Reach will release during E3.

Poimandres · Mar 12, 2019

I've been waiting almost 12 years for this haha. The only question for me now is release date!

Katarn343 · Mar 12, 2019

Reach on MCC is all I needed. Thank you, my 343 overlords.

Bullet magnetism is also aim assist, like soft lock. If true, no buy!
