Halo 5: Guardians doesn't have split-screen cooperative play. This is a drastic shift for the series -- every console
Halo game has featured local co-op, including the recently released
Halo: Master Chief Collection, a bundle of the franchise's major titles. Plenty of longtime
Halo fans have hit Twitter with messages ranging from
disappointment to some that promise to
cancel their Halo 5 pre-orders. Microsoft doesn't have any plans to launch the game with split-screen, but in a world of constantly updating consoles and streams of downloadable content, there's a sliver of hope for couch co-op fans, according to Microsoft General Manager of Games Publishing Shannon Loftis.
"Well, we do listen to gamers," Loftis says during a meeting at E3. "The priority feature for the release of
Halo 5 was 60FPS, so that's what the team has been focused on delivering. But, you know, never say never. The glorious thing about
Halo and about Xbox is that we can deliver continuous improvements to any experience. But, no announcements being made here."
