“2014 is the anniversary of the original launch of Halo 2…We had this discussion. We said, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if we had all the games in the Master Chief story on one console,'” O’Connor told TIME.

The Halo Master Chief Collection will be released on November 11, while Halo 5 will be released in late 2015. Watch the video above the insider scoop.
