A former DOOM developer has shared new details about a canceled Halo MMO called “Titan” that was once being developed by Microsoft and Ensemble Studios. The game was set thousands of years before the main Halo games and focused on the Forerunners and the Covenant. Players would have chosen different factions and explored a large online world based on Halo lore. According to developer Sandy Petersen, the project was well into development. The team had created missions, environments, races, classes, and other gameplay systems before cancellation. One interesting idea was a race of humans made from hard light, similar to concepts later seen in Halo 4. The Flood was also planned to appear but not as a playable faction. The MMO was developed by Ensemble Studios, the team behind Age of Empires and Halo Wars. The studio closed in 2009, and the game was never released. Petersen called the cancellation “a great missed opportunity” and believes it could have become something special for Halo fans. Via:
