Bungie: Anything's possible after Reach

Halo: Reach - Image 1


Bungie's answer to the frequently asked question of whether or not they'll be making any more Halo games has just gotten more vague. Senior designer Lars Bakken said last month that Halo: Reach is likely the last one, but now another Bungie member is saying that they don't even know.

Community and PR director Brian Jarrard recently told VideoGamer that at this point, there's no way to say exactly what their next move is:

I wouldn't confirm or deny at this point. We're really excited to get Reach out the door. Beyond that, we're not at liberty to say right now what's next.


I think there's a lot of work just to get Reach done between now and next fall. At that point anything's possible. We're going to keep looking at making the games we want to make. Maybe that's Halo. Maybe it's not. We'll have to wait and see.


There have been rumors before that Bungie is shopping around a new IP, so that's something to look forward to. Personally I'd like to see them work on something outside the Halo franchise after Reach.

For those interested the spartans in the Reach pic are, From left to right, Sam, Fred, John(MC), Kelly, Linda. At least thats who I believe them to be, They seem to match.

i never believe any company that says anything like "this is the last of our most successful franchise"...



personally i'd be disappointed if they didn't do a follow up to halo 3.



you just can't tease ppl with an ending like that and then do nothing with it...

I remember Bungie Halo 3 was their last one before Halo 3 actually came out. Then they announce ODST, then Reach. I think they want to move on to a new game, but MS keeps upping the ante offering more money for each game to keep them interested.

» yep

they should give the halo franchise some cool down time by making a non halo game. Then they could make another halo game right after that.

yeah, I know what you mean. Hideo Kojima said, that Metal Gear Solid 4 was the last title in the MGS series. Well, what have we now? Two another Metal Gears..

» lol, MGS.

Every Metal Gear game other than Metal Gear Solid on PSX was meant to be the last in the series.
