The Halo series is coming very soon, March 24 to be exact, and fans of the license are eagerly awaiting this adaptation. And good news for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate owners, you’ll get access to the first season for free for 30 days.
A long-awaited season 1
To be completely exhaustive in our explanations, users with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will have access to Paramount Plus for almost a month (the service distributing the Master Chief series). With Microsoft holding the exclusive rights to the Halo saga, this partnership between Paramount Plus and Microsoft was predictable. Kiki Wolfkill, director of transmedia content at 343 Industries, places a lot of hope on the substance of the series:
“When we set out to create a series about Halo and the Master Chief, our goal was not just to create an epic sci-fi adventure that would be entertaining, but to really dive into the characters, their personal stories, and the the expansive Halo universe that we’ve mostly seen in video games.
Season 1 cost nearly $10 million per episodeand it has already been renewed for a season 2. Suffice to say that there is a lot of hope for the success of the series with the public. The series will also be available in Canal+ subscription as we have seen previously. We can’t wait to see what the series is worth on March 24th.
