If you want to have more background information on the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians game, then you best check out Ridley Scott’s upcoming Halo-themed show called Nightfall. With Scott at the helm, it helps bring Microsoft’s game to full circle as the franchise has taken inspiration from Scott’s deep-space horror film, Alien. The origin story will revolve around Agent Locke, which 343 Industries head Bonnie Ross has said plays a pivotal role in the game. There is no word yet on how many episodes there would be but you will be able to catch five before the beta version comes out.
