Paramount+ has canceled its "Halo" live adaptation show after the "ambitious series" failed to capture the game's audience in its two-season run.

First reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount+ confirmed that a third season will no longer "move forward" in the streaming platform.

Sources, however, told THR that show producers Xbox, Amblin TV, and 343 Industries may still try to offer series to other streaming platforms.

It is unclear if the series potentially moving streaming platforms would mean resetting the show, continuing it for the third season, or building a spin-off based on the popular IP.

Halo Fans Rejoice Paramount+ Series Cancellation

While the news of the "Halo" series' cancellation might sound devastating for many fans, the opposite can be said for many fans of the original game franchise.

Most reactions to the cancelation were people rejoicing or making jokes about the situation while others urged those who enjoyed the series to just try playing the game.

Since the show first aired in 2022, similar opinions have surfaced online, especially after rumors about a film or TV adaptation of the original Halo games.

It comes as no surprise that many people later called for the cancelation of the Paramount+ show after it deviated so much from the source material.

What's Next for the Halo Franchise?

While the series adaptation might be dead in the waters for now, the same cannot be said for the original game franchise.

Insider reports have earlier hinted at plans to develop a remastered version of the first Halo game for modern PlayStation consoles.

There have also been talks of remaking the original trilogy, although no confirmation has yet been released to the public.

It is worth noting, however, that the original game developer 343 Industries would only supervise future releases as Microsoft and Xbox find a new studio to revitalize the franchise to a modern audience.
