A little over three years ago, Halo 5: Guardians launched worldwide. Over that time, the game has evolved in surprising ways, and provided competitive Halo fans with an incredible wealth of storylines, whether controversial or comical, incredible or unforgettable. It was never going to be easy to live up to the legendary lineage of competition established throughout the Halo franchise, but Halo 5: Guardians brought an excitement and level of team competition we hadn’t seen in many years.
With that in mind, it’s only fitting that we celebrate the end of an era with a showcase of two of Halo’s most successful sporting chapters, as the Halo Championship Series Finals 2018 at DreamHack Atlanta will feature not only the absolute world-class talent Halo 5: Guardians has to offer right now, but also a Halo 3 2v2 competition that has legends from the past emerging from their proverbial cornfields. If you haven’t figured it out already, this weekend is going to be one to remember for a long, long time.
During the show we’ll be looking back at Halo 5: Guardians’ top competitive moments, sharing the winners of the player awards, revealing some news about the future of Halo esports, and we’ve got a few more fun things in store for the show as well. The action kicks off this Friday on Mixer, Twitch and YouTube at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT and continues throughout the weekend. For a full rundown of the festivities, head to Halo Waypoint.
The HCS Finals 2018 at DreamHack Atlanta looks to put an exclamation point on the latest chapter of Halo esports with an incredible display this weekend. From top talent to relentless rivalries, there will be something to keep your eyes glued on all tournament long. The end of this particular Great Journey is nigh, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
