343 Industries is working with a group of modders to make E3 2003’s demo playable Halo 2. Through a blog post from Halo Waypoint, the senior writer of the franchise Kenneth Peters went into some detail on the history of Halo: CE and Halo 2, focusing on content that didn’t make it into the games.
“I can confirm that we are working on a reconstruction of the original E3 Earthcity scenario that makes it playable in modern Halo 2“Peters wrote in the post.”This is not a trivial process, and we should probably overlay a whole page of warnings that come with using a demo map for an engine that no longer exists and not blowing the whole thing up.“.
On the project, a number of modders are working on it with the help of 343 Industries. Speaking about their work on the project, modder General_101 said of the Earthcity map: “This map requires little introduction, I believe. Legendary content that we hope to make playable in the MCC (although we can’t make any promises about its availability on console)“.
There is currently no release date for this version yet, but 343 Industries said it will be worth the wait.
