Lenovo clarifies recent promotional image: No Halo 5 PC port. A promotional image for the Lenovo Legion Go S falsely implied a Steam release of Halo 5: Guardians. Lenovo confirmed the image was a mockup, dispelling recent speculation.
This leaves Halo 5 as the only mainline Halo title absent from PC, a notable omission given the PC release of Halo: The Master Chief Collection and even the standalone Halo 5 Forge editor in 2016. The absence is particularly frustrating for players wanting to experience the complete Halo story on PC.
While the Lenovo mockup fueled renewed rumors, Lenovo's senior community manager directly denied it was a leak. The image remains on Lenovo's website, further suggesting it was an unintentional error.
Despite the debunking, hope for a future PC port remains. Microsoft's increased focus on PC gaming in recent years suggests a potential future release, though currently, there's no official confirmation.
The future of the Halo franchise is also uncertain. Halo Infinite continues to receive updates, but fan demand for new entries is growing. Speculation includes a potential Combat Evolved remake and even a surprising move of The Master Chief Collection to PlayStation, though these remain unconfirmed rumors.
