I was a Sega and PlayStation fanboy growing up so I completely missed out on the Halo series. I finally pick up the Master Chief Collection on Steam.

I’m only interested in the story and I probably won’t touch the multiplayer. What order should I play it in as someone who knows absolutely nothing about Halo? Release date order or chronologically?

    Just play 1, 2 & 3 chronologically and if you want more play odst. I, personally, wouldn’t recommend halo 4. They’re also great games for co op if you have a friend you can convince

      I agree but also how the heck did you forget Reach! 😅

      What an absolutely phenomenal single player game in the series, and absolutely fantastic multiplayer to boot! :-D

      Gosh the Reach score lives rent free in my head all these years later… ♥️

    The order that they appear in MCC, which is pretty much release order. I would 1000% get the ODST and Reach campaigns as well, as those are top notch too.

    CE, 2, 3, ODST, Reach. You can play 4 if you want so you can see how it started going downhill, and it has its moments.
