E3 2021 Schedule: Everything You Need to Know
Halo Infinite,
Far Cry 6, and Nintendo’s follow-up to
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and that just scratches the surface of what we’ll be seeing from June 10-15 amid the E3 2021 schedule.

We first took a look at Halo Combat Evolved on PC over a year ago, concluding that while it was a good enough port of the existing Xbox version, the foundations of the port themselves were flawed. The Anniversary Edition upgrades were all present and correct, but classic Halo was built from Gearbox s 2003 Windows port, which doesn t hold a candle to Bungie s Xbox original.
