Halo: The Master Chief Collection

Halo: The Master Chief Collection is an upcoming bundle of Halo games featuring Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo 2 Anniversary, Halo 3 and Halo 4, as well as the digital feature Halo: Nightfall and access to the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta. It will be released for the Xbox One on November 11, 2014 for $59.99.

Campaign

The collection will feature a "Master Menu" allowing players to directly play any mission in any of the four games straight from purchase, or arrange the levels from different games into their own custom playlists. Some playlists arranged by 343 Industries will be readily available from launch.

Technical

All four games will run natively at 1080p and at a frame rate of 60 frames per second.

Multiplayer

Multiplayer will be available for all four games - each running from their respective original engines - and will be accessible via a unified matchmaking menu system. Players will be put into a lobby, then asked to vote for a match from a random selection of over 100 maps from all games (depending on playlist), rather than have the population split into groups for different games.

All games will ship with every multiplayer map ever packaged with Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo 4, as well as all downloadable content maps ever released (with the exception of PC-exclusive maps).

The collection will contain six remastered maps from Halo 2; the only confirmed being Ascension, with the other five still to be officially announced.

The collection also contains its own series of achievements for each of the four games, with the collective gamerpoints attainable totaling at 4000.
