Halo Starscope
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
| “ | Scan the heavens to learn the legend of Master Chief. Explore the worlds forever marked by his heroism. And gear up for Halo: The Master Chief Collection. | ” |
Halo Starscope was a promotional website created by Razorfish Portland as part of the marketing cycle for the original 2014 launch of Halo: The Master Chief Collection.[1] It was primarily designed for use as an augmented reality experience on mobile devices, though could also be viewed on desktop too. The experience allowed users to look around 360o views of various environments from the Halo games included in the collection, with the ability to interact with certain points to learn more about the various items featured in the games. The experience also provided Master Chief Collection-rewards for users who engaged with it including desktop wallpapers and press kit artwork and samples of the then-upcoming soundtrack for Halo 2: Anniversary.
The experience featured environments from Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo 2: Anniversary, Halo 3, and Halo 4. For the Anniversary games, the experience also had interactive sliders that allowed the user to compare the original Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 with their remastered counterparts.
Missions[edit]
Opening Starscope presented the user with a view of the Milky Way. When looking around, the user could interact with several points of interest, or "missions".

- "The UNSC Halcyon-class cruiser that finds Installation 04, the first Halo ring discovered by humans. It is aboard the Autumn in 2552 that Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 makes his first appearance in the epic Halo saga."
