Why do what Fortnite is currently king at (and always will be king, just like how Minecraft is king of what it excels at doing), and instead just try something others aren't doing, or not doing a great job with?.
Like if anything, actually make your own Helldrivers, but with ODST, instead of Spartans (there's a reason why people liked ODST, it's not because it had the Halo name slapped onto it). But even then, I'd just want MS to do something new, instead of yet another corpo playing it typically safe and copying that's on the market right now, trying to become king at something it will never claim as their own.
Like why not a Halo iso ARPG?, that genre doesn't really have a king, not even Diablo 4 is considered all that great, and the throne still remains vacant on that front. Hell, they could take a note from their AoE RTS side and actually make a full on RTS, not what was had with Halo Wars 1-2, which still feels like "baby's first RTS" vibe.
Just anything but stereotypical, super safe played, Battle Royale (seriously there are other userbases out there that want to play games that aren't pure PVP only BR themed, just look outside the window for more than 5 seconds, I mean there's a reason why Helldivers 2 is doing rounds and that's co-op based).

I get what you are saying however an ODST game wouldn't be anything like PUBG or Fortnite. If anything, an ODST BR will be more in line with Apex Legends. Take Apex Legends, replace all the assets with Halo themes, have you literally drop in like an ODST from orbit on different planets and go nuts. Sounds great on paper but they just need to implement it correctly.
Ill also be down for Halo Wars 3 or a Horror styled Halo game in line with Dead Space but with the Flood. But now I am fantasying.
I feel a BR Halo game would be hot right now, however the one major issue is it will possibly cancel out Halo Infinites MP, and I can't see 343 being happy with that.
