Four games in one, never mind multiplayer, experiencing the campaigns of the Halo series alone is a treat in of itself. The Master Chief Collection lets fan play through Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 4, all variously enhanced and judiciously remastered.

Xbox's flagship series has been well treated by this collection, ensuring the franchises' trademark gameplay is not only retained, but in places improved. Chock full of additional features, including a rather pleasing option to swap between original and remastered graphics with Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2, the four titles on offer are presented in their finest form.

Especially now, following patches, multiplayer is sorted and the campaigns remain stellar. If there's a standout, it is Halo 2; the title with the strongest story and a great deal of remaster attention payed to it. Fans of the originals are set to be most pleased with the offering of The Master Chief collection, reacquainting themselves with the original titles whilst waiting for the latest sequel to arrive next year, whereas newcomers can experience the games in their finest form on Game Pass.
