Years later, Microsoft is returning to Halo: Master Chief Collection.

The anthology of classic Halo games will be updated with Xbox One X "advancements" next year, developer 343 Industries revealed in a community livestream last night.

There will also, finally, be fixes for some of the remaining bugs left over from Halo: MCC's memorably disastrous launch.

A "public flighting program" will be available in spring 2018 for fans to try and test out new fixes.
