Paramount+ has revealed the first trailer for Halo The Series season 2 alongside a release date. The second season will continue the adventures of Master Chief from the first season and expand the universe and story with more lore from the video games it’s based on. Fans can expect to catch the next season on 8 February 2024.
As the trailer suggests, The Covenant is on its way to Earth. Numerous marines will stand alongside Master Chief and the Spartans but it looks like it’s going to be a pretty grim fight as not everyone is going to make it out alive. We get quick clips of battles, Energy Swords, Cortana and a Halo ring. Plot details are still being kept tightly under wraps but season 2 is only a few months away from release so the wait will be pretty short if you want all the answers.

The first season of Halo The Series launched back in March 2022 to mostly mixed reviews, with many stating that the show’s deviation from the source material was unnecessary. This is also the first time (apart from extended universe comics and books) that Master Chief is physically shown without a helmet. The character is played by Pablo Schreiber, who is mostly maskless throughout season one. Naturally, fans were divided on Master Chief’s depiction.
In Halo-related news, Joseph Staten, a long-time veteran of the Halo franchise, joined Netflix back in April to work on an unannounced AAA video game. 343 Industries might be all-hands on deck for Halo Infinite‘s multiplayer at the moment but new story DLC for the single-player campaign is reportedly out of the question. Despite a very rocky launch, Halo Infinite mostly bounced back thanks to its solid campaign and free multiplayer which gradually got better with each new update. 343 says it remains committed to future Halo games.
Halo The Series season 2 launches on 8 February 2024. Check out the first trailer below:
