The ‘Halo’ series will be completely separate from the games

Halo makes its own canon, we’re now hearing from the makers of the Paramount+ series.

From HelloThe franchise is celebrating its twentieth anniversary this year. This of course makes it so nice that we’re going to get a TV series. The highly anticipated show will be at Paramount+ next year, but it appears to be building its own canon that will be completely separate from the games.
