Halo: Edge of Dawn is coming later this year, and it looks like it’ll be one for Infinite fans.

Halo: Infinite is almost four years old, and since then we haven’t heard a peep about what Halo Studios is up to.

We could potentially be getting a first look at Halo 7 in October when the Halo World Championship takes place. According to a report, the developer will reveal a major Halo announcement here.

Last month, we reported on the announcement of Halo: Edge of Dawn. It’s a novel set after the events of Halo: Infinite, written by Kelly Gay who also penned other books in the franchise including Smoke and Shadow, The Rubicon Protocol, and Epitaph.

Considering how novel-heavy the Halo franchise has become over the years, you’ve likely read one of her books if you’re a die-hard fan.

Now, we’ve got an official synopsis and the cover reveal.

Here’s the cover, featuring Master Chief and Cortana (also referred to as The Weapon in her new form during Halo: Infinite).

The book’s official blurb reads: “2560. After eliminating War Chief Escharum and sending the Banished leadership into chaos, the Master Chief continues the fight on Zeta Halo, accompanied by his new AI companion and their loyal pilot Fernando Esparza."

It continues, “As Spartan-117 searches for scattered allied forces, a young combat medic—tortured and imprisoned for months by the Banished and the enigmatic Harbinger—may hold the key to unlocking deeper mysteries within this ancient ringworld. But every step toward answers is haunted by the sinister and elusive blademaster Jega ‘Rdomnai, who is hellbent on vengeance…”

Of course, there are fans who aren't exactly thrilled that Halo: Infinite's story is set to draw to a conclusion in a novel rather than a game; I can't say it's a concern of mine.

Although Halo: Edge of Dawn was originally slated for a November release, the book has apparently been pushed back to December.
