Early access times

The Halo Campaign Evolved release time has almost arrived, letting all players dive in from July 28 and not just those with the Premium Edition. With a global simultaneous release for all platforms, everyone will be able to log into Halo Campaign Evolved from the same time, but that works out as a different time for each region due to time zones. So, if you want to know when you'll be able to start playing, I've laid out some of the Halo CE remake release times below.

Halo Campaign Evolved releases globally on July 28 at 3pm UTC. That means all players, whether you're on Xbox Series X, PS5, or PC will be able to play from that time. Here's how that translates to different time zones so you know exactly when you can play:

US Pacific: 8AM PDT on July 28
US Eastern: 11AM EDT on July 28
UK: 4PM BST on July 28
Central Europe: 5PM CEST on July 28
Eastern Australia: 1AM AEST on July 29
New Zealand: 3AM NZST on July 29

There's not long left to get your Halo Campaign Evolved pre-load sorted so that you're ready to play as soon as the launch time arrives. And to make sure you can hop in without a hitch, I also recommend making sure that you have your Microsoft account details ready so that you can link it to your platform account, particularly if you're going to play on PS5 or Steam (obviously now is a good time to make one if you don't have one).

If you've pre-ordered the Premium Edition of Halo Campaign Evolved you can hop into Halo Campaign Evolved right now but there are mere hours left of early access. This period started on July 23 at 3pm UTC and will last until the full launch on the 28th when everyone else gets to play.

You might also want to know how long Halo Campaign Evolved is, particularly if you're planning on 100%-ing it.
