The development team at 343 Industries and publisher Microsoft are using the most recent Bulletin associated with the Halo series to offer details on the narrative of the coming New Blood novel and to explain the state of the competition in the official Championship Series for The Master Chief Collection.

The footage features writer Jeff Easterling and it also includes a look at the most interesting creations that were delivered by members of the community.

The New Blood novel is important for the Halo universe because it will offer a range of concepts which will be further explored in Halo 5: Guardians.

343 Industries has also recently revealed that they are doubling the size of the prices offered for the Championship Series and that the rules of the competition are being changed for the coming two major events.

At the moment, the studio is putting the finishing touches on a new update for Halo: The Master Chief Collection, which was initially set to be tested by the community.

The beta for it was dropped and the company says it has plans to focus on matchmaking and other issues signaled by the community.

Halo 5: Guardians is currently set to be launched during the fall of this year on the Xbox One.
