"While we originally said trilogy, we've actually expanded this to more of a saga," Spencer told GameSpot, "so we don't want to limit the Reclaimer story within a trilogy." Spencer declined to specify whether the Xbox One Halo title was Halo 5 proper or a spinoff of sorts, opting instead to say that it's "a legitimate version of Halo" Microsoft will detail in the future.[/quote] So There was supposed to only be Halo 4,5, and 6, but now that trilogy is apparently going to be a saga, which is 6 games.
Microsoft sure loves their milk.

This is a tough one. I've always believed that the Halo universe is rich enough to withstand more games. Reach, ODST, Halo Wars, & now Spartan Assault. What they should not do is milk the Reclaimer story. Unless this is a direct response to how poorly the story in Halo 4 was explained & they feel they need more games to do it justice, it simply won't work. If it does become a "saga" then I expect the first cinematic of the main campaign to lead into the actual campaign, not to lead into Spartan Ops. (Halsey in that cinematic did basically zero to help the story of the main campaign)
