Like the Energizer Bunny, the Halo franchise just keeps going and going. At their press conference on Monday, Microsoft announced the development of Halo: Reach, rumoured to be based on the Halo: The Fall of Reach novel by Eric Nylund.
The story in Halo: The Fall of Reach takes place before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved, the first game released in the Halo series, and depicts the origins of the Spartan II super soldiers. The story is narrated by Halo protagonist Master Chief.
No details are known about the gameplay in Halo: Reach, but a multiplayer component for the game has been confirmed. Halo: ODST, shipping to retail on September 22nd, will include an invitation code for the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta.
