Unmade Halo adaptation was discussed prior to staff cuts

Reports indicate that developers once planned an adaptation of a franchise novel before workforce reductions halted the project.
Developers previously designed a title inspired by the Halo: First Strike book. This unreleased project was set to include a minimum of five stages, with certain sections stretching well beyond standard mission lengths. Development ultimately ended due to workforce reductions.
The studio considered releasing the title as downloadable content to reuse existing assets or as a standalone spin-off. If formatted as a separate release, creators could have expanded the scope. The plot would have omitted certain portions of the original literature, centering instead on the protagonist's battles against the Covenant alongside various collectibles and terminals.
Makers might have pursued additional literary adaptations if this initial effort had succeeded.
