Gamereactor har tidigare rapporterat om rykten angående ett stundande Halo 2 Anniversary Edition. Detta rykte fortsätter att leva i och med uttalande angående spelet av ingen mindre än Microsoft-chefen Phil Spencer. Enligt Gamespot hade han detta att säga angående det emotsedda spelet:
"In this fictitious world where that game existed, it's an easy answer: it has to be just the multiplayer experience that we all found in that first Halo 2 game"
Spencer nämner förutom multiplayer-läget även tvåans, för serien, innovativa stunder som något man måste ha i åtanke:
"If you think about what happened in the franchise and what were the hallmark moments--when did duel wielding come in, when did another playable character that wasn't Master Chief come in?"

Men tyngden måste ligga på att göra multiplayer-läget till något alldeles extra då det gäller Halo 2 menar Spencer:
"All the things that you and I know about the evolution of the franchise, if you're going to say one thing about Halo 2, you're going to talk about real multiplayer. I think you just have to nail that in just such a fundamentally core way. Frankly [we'd have to do it] probably better than we did with Halo 1 Anniversary"
"If there were something called Halo 2 Anniversary, I think the multiplayer would have to be fantastic."
Tror du att vi kommer få uppleva Halo 2 Anniversary Edition? Och hur tror du att de skulle kunna förbättra multiplayer-läget?
