That's not confirmation. Could be an unused asset that they just had Steitzer record in case.

Oh no.

I hope it's just an extra asset or was something planned but is now scrapped.

The earlier rumours (part of which were true RE: first season being Reach themed) suggested there was a larger mode than BTB, did they not? I expect an evolution of Warzone (Halo 5) and not a traditional Battle Royals.

The game showing a fireteam of up to 28 players kinda shows there's a larger mode in the works.

I don't see the issue with this. Launching a shooter in 2021 without a Battle Royale mode would be like launching an FPS in 2000 without a capture the flag mode: a fucking stupid decision ignoring what's popular with fans of the genre. Sure I'm not a huge fan but honestly, it is what it is and I don't need to play every single mode and love it to enjoy a game.

I'm a stickler for proper capitalization. You saw nothing.

You are 100% correct.

Either BR fans go play a game with a BR mode, or you keep them in your ecosystem by giving them your own BR mode.

I'd play the hell out of a Halo battle royale mode.

maybe at one point as it went F2P they were probably going to make it a BR game but ended up where they are now.

Is this the thread to discuss non-campaign leaks from the datamine? I've been out of the loop with Halo for a while but I would love to hear people who followed Halo 5 make sense of what's new and what's just a code name for an old gun in the leaked list of weapons.
