Could We see Halo 5: Guardians On PC In The Future ?

Halo 5: Guardians could come to Winnows 10 PC’s. According to Halo franchise director Frank O’ Connor during a GamesRadar livestream "Nothing to announce at this point, but it’s absolutely within the bounds of reason." O'Connor went on to say the porting process wouldn't be all that difficult. "We developed the game on an Intel platform. It wouldn’t be the hardest thing in the world to move it to PC and take advantage of PC stuff. But nothing to announce today." Halo 5: Guardians will be available for Xbox One on October 27, at least for now. It would be nice to play Halo on a PC, the last Halo on PC was Halo 2. Needless to say a Halo on PC is long over due and would be a great addition to the Windows 10 games catalog that Microsoft is trying to create. What do you think of Halo 5 being on PC ?

Battles are highlighted by realistic gunfire, explosions, and blood splatter effects. Characters can also use assassinate other characters by snapping their necks, or by stabbing them with a bladed weapons."
