Gamers will find other details that do not fit

The Hunt the Truth promotional content for Halo 5: Guardians continues to arrive, and a new audio entry linked to the series offers fans information about Master Chief, with a focus on his past and the various inconsistencies linked to it.

Video game developer 343 Industries and publisher Microsoft are also offering some visual clues for fans to explore.

The production values for Hunt the Truth remain very high and the voice actors that have been selected for the project do their job very well.

There are some big revelations about the past included in the new episode, which fans should discover on their own.

343 Industries has not yet said whether the promotion will remain focused on audio content in the future or if it plans to launch a bigger ARG linked to Halo 5: Guardians, as it previously did with the second title in the series.

Halo 5: Guardians aims to deliver solid single and multiplayer modes

The new title in the series is very important because it is the first one to arrive on the Xbox One home console with entirely new content.

Microsoft needs the experience to be solid enough to lead its fall line-up and improve sales of the home console, which has lagged behind the PlayStation 4 for the past few months.

Halo 5: Guardians has already delivered two trailers, one focused on Agent Locke and another on Master Chief, and the Hunt the Truth promotion is set to run until E3 2015 starts.

When it comes to the multiplayer side of the title, the development team at 343 Industries has collected a lot of data from the beta stage that ran earlier in the year.

The information is now being used to tweak the core mechanics, including the new Spartan abilities, in order to make sure that the balance is solid as soon as the game is out.

343 Industries has announced that it would allow gamers to turn off all the new and controversial powers, including Sprint and Slam, when they play custom matches in Halo 5: Guardians.

The team also has plans to tweak the weapons and to make sure that both the maps and the modes appeal to as many fans as possible.
