Master Chief's Face Will Remain A Mystery In Halo 5
During an appearance at Microsoft Canada’s X15 event last week, Halo 5 creative director Tim Longo was asked if Halo 5 will be the game where Master Chief finally takes off his helmet on camera, revealing his actual face. Tim confirmed that….no, that still won’t be happening.
“I actually don’t even know if I can talk about that,” Longo is reported to have said. “He doesn’t take his helmet off.”
So it looks like the tradition of mystery continues. The closest we’ve ever gotten to seeing what might be Master Chief’s real face was in the “Legendary” ending for Halo 4’s campaign, where part of Chief’s face flashed onscreen for about a tenth of a second….or this could be a close-up of a gorilla’s nostrils….which do YOU think it is?
Halo 5: Guardians will hit stores on October 27, exclusively for XBox One.
