Joystiq has learned that the previously rumored remake of Halo: Combat Evolved will indeed launch this holiday season for Xbox 360 with a full visual overhaul. Sources explain that the re-release is not Bungie's 2001 Xbox game simply running at a higher resolution -- it's being remade with new art assets. WhileHalo's audio will likely remain unaltered, the controls will allow for more recent Halo configurations.

The Halo: Combat Evolved remake is allegedly being developed by New Jersey-based Saber Interactive, the company behind TimeShift and Namco's upcoming Inversion, but we've been unable to confirm the nature of the engine powering it. We understand that it's something other than the Reach engine.

The Halo: Combat Evolved update, one of two Halo games currently in development under the watchful eye of 343 Industries, is expected to support 1080p resolution and 3D televisions. Details on multiplayer are supposedly still being worked out, but we understand the remake will likely feature online co-op (the original game supported two-player split-screen co-op). 

The game is expected to re-evolve on November 15, 2011, ten years after Halo: Combat Evolved launched alongside the Xbox. Our sources didn't know of any plans to similarly upgrade the recently disconnectedHalo 2, but it's hard to imagine Microsoft playing favorites with its biggest franchise.

As if MS would give it to them, they're clearly not talented enough for the Halo franchise ...

Haha...new Halo game no, but copy/paste job of a 10 year old game...I think that team is more than capable.  anyone but Sonic Team should be capable of doing this...

I personally liked Timeshift when it came out. It was before this whole Modern Warfare FPS wannabie craze, and Timeshift had some originality to the concept.

It can be a crappy remake or a great game, if it has Halo on it, people will buy it no matter what.

Yeah, Timeshift was horrible. I'm not a huge fan of Halo but there are plenty of good teams out there.

Will they, 12 mill bought Halo 3, then less than 20% of that base bought Halo Wars.

So will this remake have online multiplayer?  I beat the campaign of the original one so I don't need to buy the remake if it's only single player.

Hip hip...

Did you just inadvertently call the best console RTS crappy?

lol no Halo Wars is onme of my fav halo games, I just meant people don't buy a Halo game because it has Halo on the title. Halo Wars sold because it IS a fantastic RTS on console.
