In total, the Master Chief Collection will entail over 120 multiplayer maps and 67 campaign missions\u2014which should be enough to keep you occupied for a while. The idea is to \u201cevolve and grow\u201d the collection over time with community input, so it\u2019s likely we\u2019ll see more features added to each game after launch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After years in the wilderness, Halo: The Master Chief Collection will bring Halo Reach, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo 2: Anniversary, Halo 3: ODST (minus the Firefight mode), Halo 3 and Halo 4 to PC.
