00:00Whether you're looking to indulge in a little nostalgia, or want to discover Halo for the very first time,
00:05Campaign Evolved is a must-play, a well-crafted remake that retains the spirit of the 2001 original
00:12and introduces plenty of modern flourishes.
00:15It's certainly true that there are elements of Campaign Evolved that are a little on the tired side.
00:20Developer Halo Studios was intent on building a faithful remake,
00:24and elements of Halo's debut adventure that were once revolutionary are now a bit dated.
00:29Still, Campaign Evolved remains an absolute riot.
00:33There's a quality to its mission design, world scale, and enemy intelligence that's astounding.
00:38And seeing the game rebuilt so lovingly in Unreal Engine 5 is well worth the price of admission.
00:44The magical moment Master Chief steps onto Installation 04 for the first time, for example.
00:49Looking up at the curving Halo ring felt revolutionary back in 2001,
00:53and today it still generates a real feeling of genuine awe.
00:57Plus, Halo Campaign Evolved does actually contain some brand new content.
01:02In the three new prologue missions, set about a year before the events of Combat Evolved,
01:07Halo Campaign Evolved is a true masterclass in FPS level design,
01:11with gunplay and enemy AI that revolutionized the genre.
01:15A lot has changed in 25 years,
01:17but Campaign Evolved is every bit as enjoyable as Combat Evolved was back in 2001.
01:22So, let's go back in 2001.
01:22Take care of today, pour last few minutes.уг
