Microsoft Is Making Minecraft The Halo Game You’ve Always Wanted
After merging Minecraft with Mass Effect, Skyrim, and even Marvel Super Heroes, Microsoft and Mojang are celebrating the recent announcement of Halo 5: Guardians. A new Halo mash-up pack is coming, and it will be a blast of nostalgia that’s sure to stick with fans.
The Halo Mash-up pack includes a new texture set, reskinned menus and interface, items that are reworked with a Halo flare, and 40 character skins. You’ll also get some Halo music and a new world that features some iconic locations from the series, including fan favorite map, Blood Gulch.
More information is coming later this week, and we’re hopeful that a release date is part of what we’ll find out. For now, you can click the screenshots featuring Sergeant Major Avery Johnson, some of the Spartans from Halo: Reach and Halo 4, and a particularly troublesome Monitor for a larger version.
