Halo 2 Anniversary is an upcoming remastered edition of Halo 2. It will be released November 11, 2014 as part of the Halo Master Chief Collection for the Xbox One.[2][3]
Features
Like Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, the game will allow users to switch between the remastered version and a "Classic Mode"; both visuals and audio will be remastered in the Anniversary mode but will remain original in the Classic Mode. The switch between the two modes is more seamless than in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, being instantaneous as opposed to the screen fading to black in the interim.[4] The remastered cutscenes are pre-rendered by Blur Studios as opposed to being in-engine like those in most of the Halo games.[3] Similar to its predecessor, Halo 2 Anniversary will use a combination of 3D models from several of the prior games as well as modified and all-new assets.[5]
Like the preceding games, Halo 2 Anniversary will contain hidden terminal videos. However, the videos are not hosted on the disc and require an internet connection. The game will also feature new skulls.[3]
All of the original multiplayer maps are featured in the classic multiplayer mode, while six of the maps have been completely re-imagined[3] in a separate multiplayer engine described as a combination of the multiplayer of the classic Halo 2 and that of the more recent Halo titles.[5] A Forge mode will be featured, albeit only in the six re-imagined maps. The game will also have an online co-op mode.[5]
