Over 10 years since its original release on Xbox 360 consoles in 2009, Halo 3: ODST will be arriving on PCs soon as a part of the remastered Master Chief Collection’s official PC launch. Despite its arrival to the Xbox One in 2015, Halo 3: ODST was still missing its original “Firefight” horde-survival mode that was included in the game’s original release. According to official listings for the game, the PC version of ODST will include the full campaign and Firefight game modes (that are currently being tested and played during the beta). Along with updated 4k UHD graphics and 60+ FPS performance capabilities, ODST for the PC will also include controller customization options for keyboards, ultrawide support, and FOV settings options.

In order to play Halo 3: ODST players will need to purchase the  Master Chief Collection on Steam, which includes Halo: 1&2 Anniversary, 3, Reach and the future release of Halo 4 (free for MCC owners). The previous Halo titles all include DLC, full campaigns, and multiplayer for Halo 3 and Reach.
