In a profile piece published on Microsoft.com, 343 Executive Producer Kiki Wolfkill outlined her plans for Halo, Master Chief and various transmedia opportunities.
“With Xbox One, we have the opportunity to allow people to experience all these different modes of storytelling — game, television, even graphic novels – in the same place and without friction,” Wolfkill said. “Our next step is to try and make the connections between the game and its linear entertainment aspects even more experiential.
“I want to transform how people experience Halo in their living rooms and on their PCs.”
Wolfkill asserted this isn’t a cash-grab, looking to capitalise on the Halo brand.
“We will never do anything that doesn’t move the universe forward. We won’t do something for the sake of being in a certain medium,” she said.
Halo: Nightfall, a new television series, will debut alongside Halo: The Master Chief Collection, a bundle of Halo 1, 2, 3 and 4 on Xbox One. Halo 5: Guardians follows in 2015.
