A lot of confusion may have developed for some Halo fans around E3 this year, as we saw Frank O’Connor claim that only Halo 3 and 4 would contain Theater for the Master Chief Collection. Arguably, no one really expected it to be added for Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2, but Halo 2: Anniversary, being the newest game in the collection, seemed like it was missing this important feature.

However, in the Halo Bulletin for October 16th, Bravo and the 343 team announced a ton of controller settings for the Master Chief Collection. Included in these controller options was a list of Theater Controls:

• Theater Controls (Halo 2: Anniversary Multiplayer, Halo 3, Halo 4)

• Turn sensitivity: 4 levels

• Panning: Hold to pan, toggle

• Camera Speed: 4 levels

• Camera Thrust: 3 levels

As you can see from the first note, Halo 2: Anniversary Multiplayer will contain theater. This is great news for content creators and montage editors who want a simple way to record gameplay or other important footage. However, because the Anniversary campaign still runs on the Halo 2 engine, we won’t be seeing Theater mode for the Halo 2 Campaign.
