‘Halo 5: Guardians’ Release Date & Gameplay: New Trailer Shows Master Chief Is Still Alive

A new trailer of "Halo 5: Guardians" has been released last week. The new video debunks and contradicts the theory that Master Chief is dead, as shown in the previously released trailer of the game. This leads to speculations that Microsoft is preparing a dramatic twist in the game's storyline now that the company has released two "conflicting" trailers recently, a report from iDigiTal Times said.

iDigiTal Times says that the recently released trailer of "Halo 5: Guardians" points to the previous video of the game where it shows that Master Chief has died. The trailer was described as "dramatic," but it begs the question as to why Microsoft and 343 industries revealed a sort of a big "twist" in the second trailer.

"Now we have this second trailer. This video shows us that Master Chief has NOT been killed in combat. Instead, he very well may be the enemy in this situation. Apparently, Master Chief is not responding to orders and has been setting "things" loose. Whatever things the trailer is referring to is never clarified," the report pointed out.

"The trailer begins with John 117 running along a barren landscape. The ground cracks and crumbles beneath him. In the distance is a city. The video immediately cuts to Agent - now Spartan - Jameson Locke and his operations team gliding toward that same planet on a transport ship. Back on the planet's surface John is running along crumbling buildings; a voice-over mentions that he has an 'unimpeachable' record," Gotta Mobile said, describing the game's new trailer.

According to the report, "the UNSC is lying about the Master Chief being dead. Their motivations are up for debate, but the promotional material is clear: Halo 5 Guardians will take players deeper into the mindset of the UNSC after it won the war with the Covenant."

It was said that game developer 343 industries will reveal essential details about the title soon. For instance, the company will have a series of podcast campaigns featuring the game's story. The "Hunt the Truth" podcast will commence this month.
