Since the anthology’s initial release back in late November of 2014, many fans of the franchise were left disappointed with how The Master Chief Collection performed as the game library was still limited during the time. Players even compensated with Halo 3: ODST if they played MCC during launch assuming it’s from rough launch.
Now nearly four years after the game’s release and the major update for the game has been shipped out that will ultimately fix any problems players have faced since its release. Good timing as well with The Master Chief Collection being announced for Xbox Game Pass prior to this.
This update offers each title in the collection 4K resolution with HDR support as part of being X Enhanced, faster load times, and smoother framerate of 60 fps.
Matchmaking has been reworked with offline LAN options and more stable gameplay. Also with this update, players can check the average ping for their region based on the Microsoft’s global data centers. Introduced with the update is Intelligent Delivery, players will have the option to download which game they choose if they’re not interested in certain ones.
For this update being roughly around 70 GB, it seems well worth it if you have the space. As projects like this are usually deserted shortly after the problem is discovered, it is impressive 343 chose to stick with fixing this Halo Saga bundle. If you were part of the Halo: MCC Insider program and were wondering what the future of it will hold, make sure to stay in there because there will be more testing in the future.
Up to you. Preview will be used to test more stuff as we go before it hits the final release.
