Halo 2 E3 2003 Demo Coming to Halo: The Master Chief Collection

Publisher Xbox Game Studios and developer Halo Studios announced that the Halo 2 demo which was showcased at E3 2003, will be added to the final PC version of Halo: The Master Chief Collection. The demo never made it to the final version but will be added as a free mod via Steam Workshop on November 9.

 

Halo community director Brian Jarrard commented on the news:

“The response to the demo at E3 was electric, and nearly every Halo fan remembers that demo and where they were when they were first blinded by its majesty. Best of all, none of us ever would have expected that 20-plus years later, a group of passionate community modders would bring this demo to life as a full-fledged mission.
