A developer has ported the original Halo: Combat Evolved to the Sega Dreamcast, running both campaign and multiplayer, and posted 28 minutes of footage as proof. X user and game developer Jilted Valkyrie uploaded the footage days before the 25th anniversary of Halo and the Xbox. The footage shows a title screen retitled Halo: Dreamcast Evolved, multiplayer on several maps including Sidewinder, and the first campaign mission. IGN reported that the framerate appears to dip below 30fps at times. Jilted Valkyrie says the campaign port is 77% complete, credits Dreamcast developer Falco Girgis for his work on KOS and SH4ZAM, and says the port is not a 1:1 copy and includes an entire new mode he did not describe. He expects to release it this year. Halo: Combat Evolved was a day-one launch title for the original Xbox in 2001, while the Dreamcast launched in Japan in late 1998 and worldwide in late 1999. The port comes as Xbox leadership moved development of the next mainline Halo from Halo Studios, formerly 343 Industries, to Activision, which will form a new team for the project. IGN called that a bold move and said it remains to be seen whether it can restore the series to its former glory.
