‘Halo 5: Guardians’ Trailer Hits The Web

On Sunday night, Microsoft unveiled a brand new trailer for Halo 5: Guardians that not only announces the release date for the Xbox One game, but also gave fans a little bit of a look into what the story for this game will be. Master Chief has long been the hero of the Halo game franchise but the new trailer, complete with the hashtag #HuntTheTruth seems to cast the figure as someone who has either made a terrible mistake, or one that has betrayed Earth.

As Kotaku points out, this new Halo 5: Guardians trailer is live action and doesn’t actually contain any gameplay. That means we are going to have to wait until we get a bit closer to October to see exactly what the game’s graphics are going to look like. Until then, fans of the series can sit and wait and wonder about what sort of tragedy has befallen the “Conquering Hero”. Halo 5: Guardians is due out October 27th for the Xbox One.
