E3 starts in a few days and we’ve already gotten a lot of hints about the possible PC announcements that will be made during this big event. Serious Sam 4 is said to be demoed, Sunset Overdrive is rumoured to be coming to the PC, Dead Rising 4 will most probably be announced, and according to NeoGAF’s industry insider ‘Enter the Dragon Punch’, Halo 5 will be coming to the PC.
As Enter the Dragon Punch claimed:
“I have it on good authority from multiple sources that Halo 5 will be coming to PC.”
Enter the Dragon Punch can be considered a trusty source for such leaks as he has already proved his credibility in the past (by leaking a number of games).
Enter the Dragon Punch was also the source for the latest Sunset Overdrive PC rumour, so it will be interesting to see whether both of these rumours will come to fruition.
Of course this isn’t the first time we hear about Halo 5 coming to the PC.
Back in October 2015, Frank claimed that he’d love to see Halo 5 on the PC.
“You know, Microsoft has made a huge commitment trying sort of… I think normalize the Windows experience across multiple platforms. You see the elements of Windows 10 are going to appear in Xbox and Cortana and stuff like that. There is plenty of chance that Halo 5 could appear on the PC. Nothing to announce at this point… you know, we developed the game on an Intel platform. It wouldn’t be the hardest thing in the world to move it to PC and take advantage of PC stuff. But nothing I announce today on this chat.”
In May 2016, Microsoft also announced that Halo 5’s map making tool, Forge, will be coming to the PC. Microsoft stated that this was no indication of a PC release for Halo 5, however most of us already know that this will – eventually – happen.
