Xbox One: 8 2018 Leaks & Rumors You Need To Know About
5. Massively-Multiplayer Halo
Of all the hidden morsels of information exposed by Klobrille, none are as vague as this.
A "really high player-count...for Xbox biggest franchise," is all the detail we're going to get, but given John-117's status as the platform's mascot, the most likely franchise being referenced is that of Halo. Besides, what other first-party property does Microsoft lay claim to that would benefit from such an addition?
Warzone, the 24-player mode introduced with Halo 5, already marks a bold step taken by 343 Industries to try and diversify the suite of options available to Halo fans, but the number is still infinitesimal when compared with, say, Battlefield 1's 64-player bonanza.
There's no telling how high 343 would intend to aim with a potential large-scale PvP mode for Halo - or, for that matter, if it's a feature that would be added as DLC to Halo 5 or its unannounced sequel - all we know is, all-out Spartan warfare sounds like a surefire winner.
