Critic Reviews for Halo: Campaign Evolved
Halo: Campaign Evolved speaks to the series' timelessness and adds a decent set of new missions, but it's a mostly a lean retread that's more of a test run for its future with Unreal Engine.
Halo: Campaign Evolved is a novel trip around a familiar ring, but its biggest changes point to an unremarkable future for Halo.
Halo: Campaign Evolved is more successful at being a reinvention of an FPS classic than it is a reproduction - and that needn't be a bad thing.
While there’s a handful of shortcomings, Master Chief's opening chapter has never looked or felt this good, and with any luck, marks the beginning of a new journey where ambitious narratives and evolutionary gameplay mechanics won't be left behind.
These issues aside, however, Halo: Campaign Evolved is awesome. And that’s not surprising, simply because Halo: Combat Evolved is a fantastic game.
Halo: Campaign Evolved is a serviceable remake of the Xbox classic, even if it wasn't really called for. Not settling for a simple coat of paint, this game takes all the best parts of other Halo games and blends them with revamped graphics to reshape Combat Evolved into a game modern audiences will enjoy. I just wish some of the more frivolous changes had been left out. $49.94 at Walmart $102.58 at Amazon Check Best Buy
Halo: Campaign Evolved brings back one of the coolest FPS experiences of all time, and it looks better than ever. Unfortunately, some PS5-specific headaches and bad performance issues are currently holding it back in major ways.
