Master Chief changes his address: Halo: Campaign Evolved boxes for PS5 spotted in stores

A strange turn for Xbox's former flagship: promo boxes for the Halo: Campaign Evolved remake appeared on GameStop shelves with PS5 branding, i.e., the packaging carried Sony's badge. Seeing Halo box art under a PlayStation label made plenty of people do a double-take.

A Reddit photo kicked off the chatter—some responses were incredulous, others outright delighted. The remake is being built on Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) by Halo Studios (formerly 343 Industries) and is scheduled for 2026. PS fans get to try the classic on their console for the first time; longtime Xbox players split between feeling betrayed and shrugging it off as just another twist in the saga. Personally, I get the nostalgia and the grumbling—it's odd, a little awkward, and somehow feels bigger than just another release, tbh.
