You won’t be seeing Master Chief’s face in Halo 5: Guardians, developer 343 Industries confirmed.

343’s Tim Longo, speaking with Gamerant, said, “I actually don’t even know if I can talk about that. He doesn’t take his helmet off.”

It’s hardly a surprise; as Longo alluded to, the Chief hasn’t taken off his helmet in any of the Halo titles.

Halo 5: Guardians will be available from 27 October on Xbox One.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.

Steve has recently gathered a career's worth of writing on swright.au, his personal portfolio.
