A while back, Microsoft claimed that it will “properly” support the PC platform. And… well.. let’s be honest; PC gamers want Microsoft to prove that statement by bringing more Xbox One games to the PC. Well, Halo 5 releases in a couple of days on Xbox One and according to Frank O’Connor, there is plenty of chance to see this title coming to our platform.
As Frank O’Connor said during a livestream with GamesRadar when he was asked whether Halo 5 will come to the PC (head over at 1:13:00).
“You know, Microsoft has made a huge commitment trying sort of… I think normalize the Windows experience across multiple platforms. You see the elements of Windows 10 are going to appear in Xbox and Cortana and stuff like that. There is plenty of chance that Halo 5 could appear on the PC. Nothing to announce at this point… you know, we developed the game on an Intel platform. It wouldn’t be the hardest thing in the world to move it to PC and take advantage of PC stuff. But nothing I announce today on this chat.”
It’s pretty obvious that Frank O’Connor would be really interested in bringing Halo 5 on the PC. The big question now is whether Microsoft is interested in such a thing or not.

I’d rather have Halo 3.
I’d rather have Halo Wars 2.

Could but won’t. The best we’ll get is Halo MCC and that’s pushing it.
Microsoft doesn’t give enough care about pc gaming to give us a Halo.
Much more a matter of selling Xboxes than not caring about PC players.
1&2 (properly), 3, 4.
Then bring 5.
It’s simple mathematics. The mathematics that you could use to realize that a lot of people who would buy the bloody things and bring you all the monies. Including people that would double dip.
I’m not even a fan of the series and I would buy the sodding things.
But I can’t. Because “reasons”.
This game industry is the most frustrating thing to figure out. It’s like everyone has their heads stuck far up their ärses. It’s infuriating.
You can in fact buy Halo 1 and 2 on PC. There is still people playing Halo 1 online as we chat.
Yeah, but both ports aren’t that good.
Halo 2 is atrocious, don’t know how I’ve managed to beat it back then.
Master Chief Collection.
Not only because the only Games I’m interested in are part of it; Halo: Combat Evolved – Anniversary, Halo 2: Anniversary, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST. Unfortunately Reach isn’t included, but hey, we can always hope they patch it in like they did for ODST due to popularity.
Once they decide to realize that at this point, in this day & age, their pig-headed stubborn bullsh*t over Exclusivity is only harming them, not helping them, considering there’s less than a 100,000 people world-wide that would actually buy a XONE just to play Halo, which is really the only reason to buy one these days, considering how much their Exclusives Lineup sucks, even including Halo, compared to Sony’s.
Unfortunately once they do bring it over, the entire MCC will be Windows-10 Exclusive, so that’ll be yet-another cockblock hurdle to overcome first…….
So yeah, no rush.
Eh? I would only get it for the multiplayer. And even than Idk.
No way they would just skip 3, ODST, Reach and 4. Also the fact that Halo 3 still isn’t on PC after 7 years should tell you more than any PR babble from some business clown. Halo CE was a bad port at first but once hardware caught up it got playable. Halo 2 was an all around abomination, only made to push Vista sales. Now that F2P Russian Halo thing seems to be based on the MCC, there’s no singleplayer or anything and it’s not even proper Halo 3 MP, it’s a weird amalgum of assets from 3, Reach and 4. Actual ports of existing or future Halo titles are not going to happen.
Money speaks volumes, and even though their preference is to sell Xbox Ones, the PC market is currently larger than the Xbox One market.
Expect both the MCC to get a release next year, and possibly Halo 5 some time after it.
Releasing a PC version next holiday won’t cannabilize the Xbox One, so sounds like a win-win for everyone involved. PC gamers can get it if they prefer it on PC, and people that really want it now can get it on Xbox One. Either way MS wins!
That corny a*s GamesRadar peasant wasn’t having it.
I would be down if they released MCC on Windows 10 first.
Yeah, because Microshit directx 9.0c games can’t appear on previous windows installments including f’ing windows xp
Oh yeah, just what the PC needs, another console FPS.
I guess microsoft is scared of giving their precious Halo games away to pirates. Do they still make money with previous Halo games? The most rational choice would be to port previous Halo games to PC and maybe if they are still scared hold exclusivity over Halo 5 for a while.
all they could pirate is the single player game. and we all know this geame is about its online mutiplayer..
lol, no they won’t do such a thing, not that i care for it but they simply don’t care about PC.
They don’t?
Killer Instincts
Gears UE
Sea of Thieves
Fable Legends
Dead Rising 3 (I bet MS allowed the PC ver)
And some other small games by MS.
MS can’t ignore the rise of PC. A lot of console Xbox gamers don’t care about PC, so they won’t care or know if this game will come to PC.
yep they don’t unless it’s F2P or a failed game.
Killer Instincts = F2P bulls**t.
Gears UE = it’s just a remake for a game that was already on PC.
Sea of Thieves = F2P
Fable Legends = F2P
Dead Rising 3 = nope capcom.
And some other small games by MS = they only published some of them they don’t own them.
Killer Instinct is far from F2P bs, it just has a glorified demo that offers a free character (that’s switched around) and allows you to buy your first few characters seperately for 5 bucks each if you don’t have a lot of spending money or aren’t sure the game is for you yet.
After four such purchases, you should gain access to the entire “season” of eight/nine characters, which is the same as it would be if you bought the entire pack up front for 20 bucks. Reasonable prices really if going by genre standards, and definitely better than Nintendo charging for characters (clones even) cut out from previous games, considering that KI offers completely newly developed characters.
All in all a capable way of going around things, just incompetently explained at the time and it got sucked into the negative PR black hole that was the X1 back then in 2013.
nice info
It must failes to sell on xbox like Master chief collection did to and then it fails hard enough they might consider bringing it co pc 3 years later. Many people already said that they will noit buy it due to lack of spliscreen so it is already going to sell less than Halo 4.
I would rather have the HD remake/collection or whatever, I am not a fan of never-ending games. Halo should really have ended at 3.
lol pc beggars gonna beg as usual.
and f’ you microsoft for making console users pay for live, you stupid corporate faggots.
Halo Wars 2 (PC) > Halo 5(X1). CA ftw!
Edit : Can’t wait for Total War: Warhammer.
they will give crap about pc if steam os become a success.
SteamOS will always stay niche. Even among Linux.
not really interested unless you bring 3 and 4 first
I’d rather have the Halo 1 – 3 Collection on Steam.
I say Windows 10 because I know for a fact that if MCC was ever released for Windows it would be a Windows 10 exclusive.
Uh, please make this happen. I’d buy Halo 5 twice to be able to crank the resolution and AA on PC.
I’d buy and play it on PC, I would really have liked to play Halo: Reach on pc and modded it 🙂 I’ve always prefered playing fps games on my pc really, I usually play fighters and hack and slash games on consoles.
Maybe MS has plans to replace halo with their own Windows console pc? Something like their own steam machinr? if yes then halo will start coming to pc.
it will be an Metro Apps.
