    Pretty basic, mostly showing off the game engine.

      It looks amazing. The close-up of the tree bark at 0:56 is staggeringly beautiful.

    Man, I am absurdly excited for the new engine Halo game. I wonder how they'll deal with the issues Halo 5 brought up, both in-universe and with fan-backlash. Either way that was an impressive tech demo.

    Current rumors going around that this game is open world.

      It looks open world. Given the detail with the animals, and the glimpse of some sort of submarine, I'm guessing it isn't a straight-forward linear narrative either, but has exploration and discovery as a feature.

      edit: It is without a doubt open world.

      A living, breathing world ripe for exploration and endless gameplay possibilities.

        I bet you that they will utilize this for multiplayer in a battle royal mod, which I think will either borrow heavily from or entirely replace their Warzone gametype. I loved Halo 5 warzone, so I hope it doesn't get replaced by a battleroyal mod, but at the same time many of the Warzone mechanics, especially the overall concept of PvE, would work well with a battle royal mod

        Oh jeez, if they’re hiring people to MAKE the engine still then this is a long way again (cus the Halo 5 time line didn’t bother aaannnyyyooonnneee)

    I was really disappointed with halo 5, so I'm hoping to see halo 6 get back to basics. I want things to feel like halo again. Halo 5 just didn't feel like it. Halo 4 was good, and reach was better. Building more in that direction would help them.
    And I just really want to see the flood as enemies again and see firefight come back as a multiplayer mode.

    Looks like Halo 6 will refocus on the Master Chief's story after the debacle of Halo 5's storyline.
