New details about the cancelled Halo battle royale have surfaced

Known under de codename Project Tatanka before becoming Project Ekhert, the Halo battle royale ended up cancelling along the way. According to several sources, it ended up being scrapped in January 2023, so that 343 Industries could concentrate all its efforts on the next entry in the franchise.

In a video posted on YouTube, Rebs Gaming has released what appears to be some new information about this abandoned title. For starters, it was apparently tested "weekly" by the studio.

Players would land on Halo Zeta, which was divided into several fragments. They then had to explore the map, completing objectives, collecting items and shields. The series' iconic vehicles were also likely to be a thing.
