Next Halo 5 Teaser Revealed

The next episode in the "Hunt the Truth" podcast series, a teaser campaign for the upcoming shooter Halo 5: Guardians, has now been posted, diving deeper into the mysteries behind the upcoming Xbox One game. Ultimately, the series aims to answer the question: Who is the real Master Chief?

The new episode, "Critical Condition," is the third in the series (listen to the first two here). In it, fictional investigative reporter Ben Giraud (voiced by actor Keegan-Micahel Key) speaks with a retired military officer living now on Castallaneta, a beach resort on one of Saturn's rings.

There are also interviews with other people who knew the Master Chief/John-117, each offering conflicting reports about his upbringing. Here's the synopsis for the episode:

"Conversations with retired military paint very different pictures of John. More questions arise about John’s home planet and his involvement in a violent training incident. The cracks in the official account widen, and Benjamin is drawn in."

Halo 5 launches October 27 exclusively for Xbox One. Recently, producer Josh Holmes recently confirmed that the game will use dedicated servers for all multiplayer, including custom games.
