Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game)	comment	Halo: Combat Evolvednote The Combat Evolved under the title was intended as a Tag Line or Publisher-Chosen Title, but later became an official retronym in rereleases so that the first game in the Halo series would have a distinct title. Within the original release's menu, it referred to itself as just Halo. (released on November 15, 2001note In North America. The rest of the world didn't get it until the spring of 2002.) introduced the Halo series from relatively Humble Beginnings.Humanity has been losing a war against the Covenant for the last 27 years, with the game taking place right after humanity has just suffered a devastating defeat at their most important colony, Reach. The story begins In Medias Res as the human warship the Pillar of Autumn, which had just escaped Reach, comes under attack by Covenant pursuers and is forced to make a crash landing on a mysterious ring-shaped mega-structure worshipped by the Covenant, known as Halo.The player controls the Master Chief, one of the last of a group of specially raised and trained cyborg Super Soldiers: the Spartan-IIs. He is taken out of stasis during the attack on the ship, with his mission being to protect the survivors and find out what Halo is and what the Covenant want with it. Master Chief is the quiet type, but the AI program "Cortana" linked into his battle suit does most of the talking and provides plenty of tech support. Together they eventually uncover an ancient threat aboard the Halo which makes the Covenant look like a church picnic, and then they learn the Halo itself has a much more malevolent purpose...This First-Person Shooter developed by Bungie was the big title used to launch the Xbox console. Its superior graphics, interesting story and engaging gameplay made it a hit with critics and gamers alike, and it was hugely influential in bringing the concept of LAN parties, which was later expanded upon with Halo 2 being the Killer App for online gaming for the Xbox. The seamless integration of vehicles, the very expansive missions and the constant rotation of weapon types gave it a unique experience.A port to Windows and Mac OS was released two years later courtesy of Gearbox Software, which added native online multiplayer without tunnelling utilities, the Fuel Rod Gun (strangely treated as an energy weapon) and Flamethrower weapons for multiplayer, as well as the Banshee and a new Warthog with a rocket turret as multiplayer vehicles, along with the usual computer gaming features (enhanced graphics, game mods, and so forth). The original release was not particularly designed for modification, however, and so they released a separate Halo: Custom Edition with some engine optimizations, exclusively used for multiplayer. It has a separate download and installer but requires a CD key from the retail version as well as a CD check. A fan-made mod for the Custom Edition named SPV3 overhauls graphics and level layout, and adds in the weapons and enemies of the more modern Halo games.The game received multiple Updated Rereleases for various milestones: Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary was released by 343 Industries on November 15, 2011. The graphics were revamped to high definition but it sought to replicate the gameplay and story exactly: the campaign mode uses the Gearbox PC port as a basis for the Game Engine with a feature to toggle between the new graphics and the old. In addition, Easter Eggs that became common in later games were included, including Terminals and Skulls. Multiplayer was run through the concurrent Halo: Reach system with new maps and game types designed to emulate the feel of CE. Three years later, the Anniversary version would be included as part of Halo: The Master Chief Collection on Xbox One. The single-player version is the same as the Xbox 360 version from 2011 (complete with the switchable graphics), but the original game's multiplayer mode has also been restored, letting it be playable on Xbox LIVE for the first time. Anniversary was once more ported to the PC in March 2020 as part of the general MCC PC Port. It has the Anniversary updated graphics and features, though it does lack some of the PC-specific features of the original 2003 PC port of Combat Evolved and is incompatible with the Custom Edition mod release. In this form, the game would see minor rolling updates offered for free by 343, including more customization options, but also a "2.5" overhaul for the 20th anniversary meant to correct numerous bugs and glitches that have persisted through the years. This version also later saw the release of the Halo CE Mod Tools, a rerelease of the Custom Edition tools with expanded functionalities/limits & compatibility for campaign modding.This game is also the only entry in the series to have an official novelization, Halo: The Flood. Halo: The Fall of Reach is a prequel to the events of the story, in fact setting up many core facets of the game's backstory and the franchises' Expanded Universe. Meanwhile, Halo: First Strike is an immediate sequel to this game, bridging the gap between Combat Evolved and 2.

This is especially true to the game's final level, The Maw, which sees the Chief drive down a two-kilometre-long service corridor stated to be running along the ship's dorsal structure. Since the player embarks on a service lift for a long elevator ride to reach it, it would place the maintenance way far above and away from the ship itself◊. After their initial escape ride is shot down, the player has to travel a kilometre further to one of the hangar bays on the side of the ship, despite the route being a mostly straight line from the player's previous destination!

Once you find a loaded magazine a couple of compartments away, it is completely possible to turn right around and go kill Captain Keyes and his bridge crew. Bungie even had the voice actors for Keyes, Cortana et al. record special lines specifically in case the player tried this; it results in every Marine on the ship turning hostile and hosing the Chief down with rifle fire.

There are also far fewer Covenant sub-variants in general, and many ranks that are staples of the future games are absent here, including Grunt Heavies, Grunt, Elite Ultras, Elite Rangers, and Jackal Snipers.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_26c4da00	comment	This game includes a few ladders on its maps, especially in multiplayer. Future games almost always go with gravity lifts instead for two main reasons: First, gravity lifts are far more intuitive to use. Second, the animators absolutely hated how there was no ladder-climbing animation. A good way of showing how this aspect of level design was abandoned is to compare the multiplayer maps "Battle Creek" and "Wizard", two maps that both use ladders, with their Halo 2 remakes "Beaver Creek" (which replaces the ladders with ramps) and "Warlock" (which replaces them with gravity lifts).

Sadly, it was not available on the Gearbox PC port, presumably for compatibility reasons (co-op was split-screen-only, but no split-screen mode was present in the PC version at all. Do the math). This would thankfully be rectified with The Master Chief Collection's release on PC, which allowed for networked Co-Op play.

She immediately tells Chief that he has to stop Keyes before it's too late, but he fails and this results in the release of the Flood, the horrifying menace that Halo was created to contain and destroy in the first place, and a far greater threat than the Covenant ever was.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_3b856be9	type	The Enemy Weapons Are Better
Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_3b856be9	comment	The Enemy Weapons Are Better: Zig-zagged. Covenant Plasma weaponry vastly outperforms the UNSC's ballistic firearms at melting energy shielding, balanced out by the latter being much more capable at shredding health than the former. In addition, Covenant weapons are generally far easier to find since you can loot them from the hands of your dead foes, instead of relying on predetermined spawns for UNSC weapons. Played straight when comparing the MA5B Assault Rifle (Chief's starting weapon for most missions) to its Covenant counterpart, the Plasma Rifle; the former is strictly limited to use at close range due to its egregious bullet spread, while the latter is viable at close-, medium-, or even medium-long range as, despite their increased travel time, the projectiles will always be fired with pinpoint accuracy. Averted when comparing the M6D Pistol (Chief's other starting weapon for most missions) and the Plasma Pistol; while the latter's overcharge shot and sheer abundance make it an effective disposable shield-stripper, the former wins out thanks to its impressive damage (enough to punch through the shields of most lower-ranked Elites without wasting too much ammo) and being one of only two headshot-capable weapons in the game. On the other hand, when the Flood come into play, they have a distinct resistance to plasma weapons and melee, making ballistic firearms the most viable choice for dealing with them, with the Shotgun in particular often one-shotting Combat Forms, followed by the Assault Rifle. Both weapons are regularly dropped by the Flood (who are infecting both sides of the conflict), so it's much easier to restock on ammunition. Unfortunately, the fact that they can use UNSC weapons also means they will occasionally show up with Rocket Launchers, which is just as much of a danger to you as it is a potential boon.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9	type	Early-Installment Weirdness
Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: Several. The first one that Halo 2 explicitly calls out is that your health bar is completely separate from your energy shield, requires you to track down medkits to heal yourself if you take hits while your shield is out. Later mainline games, while technically still having a separate health bar, simply have it instantly refill once your shields start to recharge. Also shared with Halo 2, the motion tracker and shield bar are paired together in the corner, while Halo 3 placed the shield bar much wider at the top of the HUD, which became standard. While a number of entries in the series have Falling Damage, Combat Evolved is the game where Master Chief and the multiplayer SPARTAN-II lineup have glass for kneecaps; simply falling from ten feet high will wipe your shields and potentially even tear into health, and any notable height further than that is almost assured death upon impact. Later games would either make fall damage a bit more reasonable, where it takes a genuinely severe height to hurt you, or outright have no fall damage that isn't the player falling into an instant-death pit out of the map boundaries. There are no Brutes or Drones; it was originally intended that First Strike was humanity's first encounter with either race, which fell through when other works set before this game featured them both anyway (Brutes went from being newly-introduced in First Strike to the second Covenant species humanity ever encountered). There are also far fewer Covenant sub-variants in general, and many ranks that are staples of the future games are absent here, including Grunt Heavies, Grunt, Elite Ultras, Elite Rangers, and Jackal Snipers. Hunters are only slightly taller than Spartans/Elites (though noticeably bulkier), and aren't Immune to Bullets; they just have high health and take reduced damage from most weapons when not shot in their exposed flesh. They can still be killed just by shooting their armor enough, though it does take well over several dozen rounds of automatic weapons fire to do the job. Vehicles can't be hijacked, and human vehicles can't even be destroyed (Covenant ones can, but only when they're occupied). There's also a small number of them and, beyond both having some variety of dropship, there are no attempts to give both sides equivalent vehicles (humans get the only playable vehicles that can take passengers, the Covenant gets the only playable flying vehicles). Banshees are less resistant to small-arms fire compared to later games, and can be shot down relatively easily with human projectile weapons such as the pistol, assault rifle, or shotgun. For vehicles that can accept additional passengers (Warthog, Scorpion), the health bars of all these occupants are displayed on the driver's HUD. Destructible vehicles (Ghost, Banshee) also have their health bar displayed on the driver's HUD. Both of these features were dropped for future games. The weapon selection is more limited; you have the MA5B Assault Rifle and the M6D Pistol for standard automatic and precision weapons, and the specialty weapons are a Rocket Launcher, Shotgun, and Sniper Rifle. The MA5B Assault Rifle has a 60-round magazine and 600-round spare ammo reserve; the assault rifles featured in subsequent titles have a smaller magazine capacity but better accuracy. Among the Covenant, they do have the Energy Sword and Fuel Rod Cannon but in contrast to all other infantry weapons are unusable, disappearing after the enemy is defeated (the latter only shows up in multiplayer of the PC port). Also, in single-player, Fuel Rod Cannons explode when their operator is killed. The iconic Battle Rifle didn't show up until Halo 2. The tone is fairly light and often comical, especially before the Flood shows up. Chief and Cortana share some witty banter and a few sight gags, complete with a farcical ending scene with Johnson and an Elite in the Legendary ending. The story was told predominantly from just Chief and Cortana's perspectives, with them coming upon events or being told of complications rather than cutting away to show what happened before they were there (you first learn of the flood by reviewing footage found on a dead marine), there is no secondary group to fill up the plot. A lot of elements such as the design of the UNSC Marines' armor and equipment are also cribbed directly from films such as Aliens and Predator; later influences would not be quite so blatant. Sergeant Johnson is treated as a Recurring Extra who exists simply to fill the role of a generic Marine sergeant in this game, rather than as a major defined character as in the rest of the trilogy. As an example of his unimportance, he appears in the level "Assault on the Control Room" as the leader of Fireteam Zulu, even though canonically, he should instead be accompanying Keyes on the mission to recover the supposed weapon cache. Early parts of the franchise would place a heavy emphasis on the Master Chief being the last living SPARTAN-II, an idea that would start to be downplayed in First Strike and then dropped altogether later on, especially with the later introduction of third- and then fourth-generation SPARTANs. Notably, the continuity of the main games continued this narrative until Halo 5: Guardians (14 years later) finally reunited him with the surviving members of Blue Team, which caused some Continuity Lock-Out. The Chief is referred to as a "Cyborg" several times, including by Grunts, plus the in-game description of the level "Keyes". The Chief, plus Spartans in general, are never referred to as such again. The setting involves most humans having some degree of cybernetic implants, so this moniker is irrelevant. Cortana is inexplicably written as if she had a British accent, most notably when she tells 343 Guilty Spark to "sod off" at the beginning of "Two Betrayals". This quirk was understandably dropped, though the idea of your main AI companion having a British accent was revisited for Serina in Halo Wars. Speaking of Cortana, she has a very different look in this game, with her hologram colored purple and possessing much shorter hair. Anniversary updates her to the look she had in Halo 3. After linking with Halo, on a few occasions, Cortana behaves unusually abrasively towards Chief, seemingly being annoyed by his limited intelligence compared to her and otherwise throwing up a handful of red flags for players who are familiar with Bungie's previous Marathon series and know that A.I.s are prone to having Face Heel Turns. Bungie has revealed that Cortana was originally supposed to be corrupted by the Forerunner's knowledge and power and turn evil about halfway through the game, but that plot thread was dropped fairly early in development. These elements of her character were removed from subsequent games until her Faceâ€“Heel Turn was realized in Halo 5. This game includes a few ladders on its maps, especially in multiplayer. Future games almost always go with gravity lifts instead for two main reasons: First, gravity lifts are far more intuitive to use. Second, the animators absolutely hated how there was no ladder-climbing animation. A good way of showing how this aspect of level design was abandoned is to compare the multiplayer maps "Battle Creek" and "Wizard", two maps that both use ladders, with their Halo 2 remakes "Beaver Creek" (which replaces the ladders with ramps) and "Warlock" (which replaces them with gravity lifts). Multiplayer medals also don't exist yet. The announcer does have some callouts that serve as a predecessor for that system, appearing for a Double Kill, Triple Kill, Killtacular (4 kills as opposed to 5 in future entries), Killing Spree, and Running Riot (10 kills instead of 15). According to Cortana, the Covenant already knows that Halo is a superweapon, though the ringworld is still significant to their religion in an unspecified way. Keyes notes that they even have a saying, "Whoever controls Halo, controls the fate of the universe." From the second game onwards, it would become a major plot point that the Covenant at large doesn't know Halo's true purpose and instead believes the Halo rings are a way to Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence. Additionally, this saying implies that the Covenant refers to the ring by its true name Halo, while in every work after this, the Covenant almost exclusively refers to the Halos as the Sacred Rings. It is also a major plot point throughout the series that the Covenant cannot easily interact with Forerunner technology as they lack the Mantle of Responsibility that was granted to humans. As such, they need to either slowly research the tech they are interacting with or capture and use a human as a "Reclaimer" to make any progress. This idea is completely absent from Combat Evolved; notably a significant chunk of "The Silent Cartographer" revolves around the Covenant having no issues with turning a Forerunner security system against the Chief and locking him out of the Silent Cartographer's facility, necessitating him going off to deactivate it. Combat Evolved features the only level in the series with an Exact Time to Failure. The very few other times a Halo game puts you under time pressure, it always uses a Collapsing Lair to force the player to keep moving forward. The main weakness of the Plasma Grenade in this game was that it had a very long fuse in comparison to the Frag Grenade. Halo 2 went in the alternate direction of the Plasma Grenade having a short fuse but a much smaller blast radius to frame the weapon more around its insta-kill sticks, a design decision that has stuck for all future entries. Even after he becomes hostile to you, 343 Guilty Spark is incapable of combat, and all he can do is send Sentinels after you while he flees the battle. Later games would reveal that he can produce and fire a hazardous laser from his eye and in 3, he outright kills Sgt. Johnson when he threatens to destroy Installation 04B. In "The Maw", if you hang around in the Armory for too long, you'll be attacked by Elite Combat Forms using Active Camouflage. This is the only game in which Active Camo Flood appears in any capacity. The insane marine in "343 Guilty Spark" that shoots at Chief while vaguely rambling about the Flood mentions that the only reason he survived was because he played dead, and that the Flood "took the live ones". As later games would demonstrate, the Flood do take over corpses just as readily as living creatures, so playing dead shouldn't have saved him. This is strictly a behind-the-scenes fact, but Halo: Combat Evolved is the only Halo game where the weapon/character stats are based on multiples of 10, like most other FPS games (i.e. the assault rifle does 10 damage and Blue Elites have 100 health and 100 shields). All Halo games from Halo 2 onwards have their stats based on multiples of 7 (i.e. the assault rifle does about 7 damage and Blue Elites have 30 health and 70 shields).

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_567beeb6	comment	Theory of Narrative Causality: After concluding they need to self-destruct the Autumn to prevent Halo from being fired, Cortana states they need to retrieve the activation code from Captain Keyes' neural implants. Yet, when the self-destruct sequence is cancelled by Guilty Spark in The Maw, the Chief just asks if they could destroy the engine manually via grenades. Getting Keyes' neural implant was never necessary, to begin with, and the entire Keyes mission (along with the first half of The Maw) could've just been skipped if they decided to blow up the engines from the start. To be fair (and this is brought up in the novelization The Flood), from 343 Guilty Spark on, the Chief is operating completely outside his chain of command, answering only to Cortana. Going to find Keyes may have been a matter of reporting on the current state of affairs, as well as potentially warning any surviving Marines about the far greater threat the Flood posed.

The second is that Halo's superweapon is intended to indiscriminately kill all sentient life within 25,000 light-years of itself, to starve out the Flood — and it was already activated once before.

Even though, despite his fairly low screen time, Bungie did everything but show his actual death. The Legendary ending does show him to be on the ring when it explodes, but this was obviously non-canon; Bungie later jokingly stated that it was his twin brother instead.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_740f59b4	comment	Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Continuing the tradition set by its predecessor, Marathon, Combat Evolved signifies a Covenant soldier's rank through their armor color. While later games often paired this colour-coding system with unique armor designs for each rank (up until Halo 4, which largely dropped the system altogether), visual variants of Combat Evolved's Covenant armor (Grunt backpack shape, Elite helmet design, etc.) were almost exclusively cosmetic, meaning that color (and in some cases, weapon choice and battle strategy) was the only way to determine an enemy's rank at a glance. Grunt ranks include Minors (Orange), Majors (Red), and Spec-Ops (Black). Elite ranks include Minors (Blue), Majors (Maroon), Stealth (Cyan + Grey trim), Spec-Ops (Black), and Zealots (Gold). Jackal ranks are determined by the color of their shields, with Minors being equipped with blue shields and Majors with orange. This also determines their shield strength, with the latter being predictably stronger than the former.

Their daughter, a major figure in the next two games, also makes an appearance. Linda-058 can be seen on the cryo bay status monitor next to the Chief, a nod to Halo: The Fall of Reach and Halo: First Strike.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_9edbda07	comment	Elite Mooks: The aptly named Elites â€” the backbone of the Covenant military. The final portion of Keyes introduces you to the Special Operations Covenant; tougher, black-armored Grunts and Elites capable of actions their regular brethren cannot, such as wielding Fuel Rod Cannons and throwing plasma grenades, respectively. The Spec-Ops Elites are particularly tough, being much more accurate with their grenades than Grunts, and having twice as durable shields and slightly more health as a regular Elite. Come The Maw, all standard Covenant troops (besides Hunters, who only have a single rank, and Jackals, who don't appear in the level) have been supplanted by the Spec-Ops Covenant.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_a0ba72fb	comment	Hanging Separately: Despite being attacked by both the Flood and Sentinels, the UNSC and the Covenant are unwilling to help each other, to the point that Covenant enemies will prioritize Master Chief even when being attacked at that moment by the Flood. Justified in that the Covenant are waging a holy war against humanity, and the Chief is seen as their version of the Anti-Christ; neither these new aliens nor the robot servants of the gods they worship are going to stop them from killing some more humans. Halo 2 also establishes that the Covenant are already familiar with the Flood and have dealt with it before, and while they do consider it an extremely serious threat to them it's not the "oh shit all bets are off" complete surprise that it is to the humans.

Chief and Cortana share some witty banter and a few sight gags, complete with a farcical ending scene with Johnson and an Elite in the Legendary ending. The story was told predominantly from just Chief and Cortana's perspectives, with them coming upon events or being told of complications rather than cutting away to show what happened before they were there (you first learn of the flood by reviewing footage found on a dead marine), there is no secondary group to fill up the plot. A lot of elements such as the design of the UNSC Marines' armor and equipment are also cribbed directly from films such as Aliens and Predator; later influences would not be quite so blatant.

Keyes notes that they even have a saying, "Whoever controls Halo, controls the fate of the universe." From the second game onwards, it would become a major plot point that the Covenant at large doesn't know Halo's true purpose and instead believes the Halo rings are a way to Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence. Additionally, this saying implies that the Covenant refers to the ring by its true name Halo, while in every work after this, the Covenant almost exclusively refers to the Halos as the Sacred Rings.

Throughout the letters, she shared details about "the humorless war machine" she has to share processing space with and the religious zealots "whose main form of worship takes place at the altar of orbital bombardment", as well as the "unbroken ring" whose creators have simply vanished. While many of the details revealed in this way back in 1998-1999 have since changed significantly (particularly in terms of Cortana's characterization), the Letters nonetheless gave away quite a good chunk of the game's plot.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_d24ed873	comment	Developer's Foresight: If you start shooting at the Marines, they'll ignore the first couple of shots as accidental friendly fire but then will turn hostile. There are even lines of dialogue for Cortana, Captain Keyes, and the Marines specifically recorded for if the player does this. In "The Silent Cartographer", the encouraged route is to try to enter the map room complex, get locked out, and then find the security room to reopen the map room. If you decide to go to the security room first, not only does the game let you skip going through the 'getting locked out' moment, but the dialogue is changed to reflect the fact that you haven't been shut out. In "343 Guilty Spark", you're encouraged to go into the Forerunner structure after your initial sweep of the swamp area, then take the lift down to progress. In the event you do take the lift down, and then decide to go back up to the surface, there are fresh Marine bodies that were not there before, allowing you to get more ammo while furthering the mystery of what is going on since nothing is stated about them happening.

Activating Halo rids the galaxy of the Flood by wiping out all of its food. That is, all life. A more literal example: should the Chief (or a fellow marine) kill one of his teammates, they will tolerate one death before turning on him, oftentimes yelling some version of this (i.e. "What the hell?!"). However, suppose the player kills Captain Keyes or any of the bridge crew during The Pillar of Autumn. In this case, Cortana will rather hilariously yell "What the hell are you doing?!" before calling in marine security teams to kill you.

If this measurement is in Celsius, then 100 million degrees would be just enough to cause hydrogen to undergo nuclear fusion, which would create an explosion equal to a standard nuclear bomb - nowhere near the scale of the explosion that is seen destroying Halo.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	comment	Anti-Frustration Features: If you're playing on Heroic or Legendary difficulties, "The Pillar of Autumn" assumes that you're a player that's experienced with the game and automatically skips past the Justified Tutorial to get the level running. You get a short window of immunity from being crushed while you flip over vehicles or Shade turrets. Since the physics for flipping over vehicles can be a bit unpredictable, this means you don't need to worry about being killed by your Warthog falling on top of you. This feature is retained in future games, but it is most perceptible in Combat Evolved given that the game's crude way of measuring object momentum means even just a slight tap from a moving object can kill you. The Anniversary graphics option adds arrow-shaped floor lights as seen in "Assault on the Control Room" to "The Library", making the latter easier to navigate.

The enemy composition was a key factor to the overall experience of the game, with a rotation of disposable grunts, shield jackals and elites along with different ranks for each, giving you more options on how to fight the enemy and the appearance of random behaviors. Killing the elites first will cause the grunts to get scared and try to run. Much of the player base found the challenge of "smart" enemies to be a huge appeal of the game's combat.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_df1793de	type	Updated Re-release
Halo: Combat Evolved (Video Game) / int_df1793de	comment	Updated Re-release: Anniversary, of course. The Campaign ran on the PC port of Halo: Combat Evolved, but with updated graphics using some assets taken from Halo: Reach alongside updated sound effects (excluding dialogue), redone cutscenes, and a remixed soundtrack. The Multiplayer mode, on the other hand, utilized Reach's engine, with 1:1 CE map remakes and the weapon sandbox is re-balanced to mimic the weapon sandbox of the original Combat Evolved. It was then upgraded further for Halo: The Master Chief Collection; while still running on the Gearbox PC port, it included the ability to finally play the original game's multiplayer on Xbox Live. With the Collection getting ported to PC, further upgrades would be included via the seasonal releases: Season 2 - Spark: Coinciding with the release of Combat Evolved Anniversary to PC was the release of the second seasonal cosmetics pass, which included brand-new visor colours and skins for both weapons and vehicles. Season 7 - Elite: While this season's pass primarily included cosmetics for Halo 3 and 4, Combat Evolved also received 10 Warthog skins (evenly divided between the Chaingun & Rocket variants) released via the Exchange, primarily backports of other Warthog skins introduced into Halo 3. This however pales to the real meat of the update, which included a slew of graphical fixes and improvements to address many visual/gameplay inconsistencies introduced in the Gearbox PC port, bringing the game up to parity with the original Xbox release. Season 8 - Mythic: While once again not the focus of the update, Combat Evolved Anniversary once again saw several minor but bespoke improvements shared with other games, such weapon/vehicle skins could now be toggled to appear during the campaign and customisable weapon viewmodel positions. Most notable was the inclusion of the classic Combat Evolved HUD (distinct from the modified Gearbox PC port and overhauled Anniversary HUDs), remastered in 4K and able to be toggled over or alongside the Anniversary HUD.

Notably, the continuity of the main games continued this narrative until Halo 5: Guardians (14 years later) finally reunited him with the surviving members of Blue Team, which caused some Continuity Lock-Out.

The original game engine is used with the Saber Engine overlapping it to facilitate the new high-definition graphics. That means the game plays almost identically (complete with a feature to toggle between the old and new graphics on the fly), though the cutscenes are entirely re-animated for the character models. Because of that, it isn't quite up to par with then-contemporary next-generation graphics; instead, it's about on par with 2007's Halo 3 The only actual changes are the inclusion of terminals hidden within the original missions containing videos that tie the franchise more closely together as well as a hint towards the story of the then-upcoming Halo 4, and unlockable skulls that can be used to modify gameplay when replaying the missions.
