Halo Studios has confirmed that it will unveil new projects during the upcoming Halo World Championship, with the announcements scheduled for Friday, October 24, 2025. The reveal will take place in the early afternoon on the event’s main stage, followed by a deep dive panel on the community stage for a more detailed look at what the studio has been building.
This marks a continuation of the messaging that began with last year’s HaloWC and the “A New Dawn” video, where the studio outlined its long-term ambitions for the series. Since January 2024, the developer has repeatedly stressed that it is working on multiple projects, and now it appears the time has come to finally lift the curtain. “Back in June we let the community know that we’d be continuing the conversation from last year’s HaloWC and the ‘A New Dawn’ video and sharing more about what we’ve been working on,” the team explained, encouraging fans to arrive early so as not to miss any part of the showcase.
The announcements arrive amid heightened speculation surrounding the future of the Halo franchise. Earlier reports suggested that at least one upcoming Halo game may be headed to PlayStation consoles, a move that would mark a significant shift for the Xbox flagship series. According to dataminer Grunt API, listings in the Xbox API pointed to PlayStation compatibility for a new Halo project, alongside integration with PlayFab, Microsoft’s cross-platform service for progression and matchmaking. The data also referenced a potential multiplayer beta, which some believe could be tied to the long-rumored Project Eker.
If these reports hold true, the Halo World Championship could serve as the stage for one of the most pivotal announcements in the franchise’s history. With the possibility of multiple projects in development and a major expansion of the series’ reach, the October 24 event has quickly become one of the most anticipated showcases for Halo fans in years.
