While there aren’t any firm confirmations yet, there have been repeated rumors of a new remake for the original game, Halo: Combat Evolved. The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered developer Virtuos is reportedly working on that project with Halo Studios. While that game was previously remastered in 2011 as Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, the new version is rumored to be using a hybrid engine that combines Unreal Engine 5 and the Halo Reach Engine. It may even be the first version of Halo to hit PlayStation consoles.
