Master Chief is coming back to the small screen but this time under the TV adaptation of the Halo video game series streaming only on Paramount+. The streaming service announced it will be releasing a nine-episode series starting on March 24, 2022. Paramount has already announced it is renewing the show for a second season, but details of exactly when are still up in the air.
If you’re unfamiliar, Halo is a hugely popular game franchise, dating back to 2001, which has been developed into 16 different games. The fictional story takes place in the 26th century as humanity battles a destructive alien threat called the Covenant. As an avid gamer myself, I cannot even begin to describe the influence Halo has had on shaping first-person shooter (FPS) and sci-fi games through the years.

“The series stars Pablo Schreiber (American Gods) as the Master Chief, Spartan-117; Natascha McElhone (Californication) as Dr. Halsey, the brilliant, conflicted and inscrutable creator of the Spartan super-soldiers; and Jen Taylor (Halo game series, RWBY) as Cortana, the most advanced AI in human history, and potentially the key to the survival of the human race," Paramount said in a press release.
The Halo series is available only on the Paramount+ streaming service so you will need a subscription if you’re planning on watching. Luckily, there are tiers available for anyone interested in signing up for their service. They offer monthly subscriptions starting at $4.99 and yearly subscriptions starting at $49.99.
