Halo‘s PlayStation 5 debut is officially here. The latest Halo game, a remake of the original, is out now on PlayStation 5 for select players. Here’s how to get your hands on it early.

How to play Halo: Campaign Evolved early on PlayStation 5

Halo: Campaign Evolved, the remake of the original Halo game, is available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. However, only players who own the Premium Edition of the game can play it now. For those who don’t have it, the title will release on July 28, 2026. It’s not super long wait, but those looking to play a week early can pick up the Premium Edition now to get some extra time in.

The Premium Edition of Halo: Campaign Evolved includes the base game, early access, as well as two additional armor packs, the Foundry Armory Pre-Order pack (that also comes with the base game), as well as the Alpha Halo Armory Pack, and a digital story and art collection. The Premium Edition retails for $69.99.

Like its name suggests, Halo: Campaign Evolved will remake the original 2001 game’s campaign in Unreal Engine 5. Players will be able to play the story with upgraded visuals, refined controls, two-player split-screen (console only), and with up to four friends online.

Despite being a remake, the new game will feature some modern updates, including the ability to sprint, being able to wield nine additional weapons in the game (including the Energy Sword, Battle Rifle, Needler, and more), and additional “skulls” that will add even more challenges to the game.

Most notable, though, is that Halo: Campaign Evolved will feature three brand-new prequel missions set before the events of the original game. These new missions will include new environments, characters, and new enemies to face off against.
