Halo: Campaign Evolved is a complete remake of Halo: Combat Evolved, the game that launched the legendary first-person-shooter series in 2001. Combat Evolved was previously remastered in the Master Chief Collection, but Campaign Evolved is a complete overhaul created in Unreal Engine 5.
A controversial aspect of Campaign Evolved is that it's the first time that Halo will be coming to PlayStation 5.

It's no surprise that Xbox has chosen to go down this route, given how large the user base of the PlayStation 5 is compared to the Xbox Series X/S.
