That makes the dynamic of the (television?) show that much more interesting, as it will set as the back story for one of the main characters from Halo 5. It’s not clear as to whether the Halo video program will adhere or allude to any written books or stories surrounding the Halo series, but if Microsoft ever feels the need to I’m sure they can just jettison the gaming series’ expanded universe to better suit their needs.
Halo Nightfall will be released alongside Halo: The Master Chief Collection exclusively on Xbox platforms this November, while Halo 5: Guardians has a planned Fall 2015 release window.
