For many gamers, the Xbox 360 games provided the pinnacle of <strong>online multiplayer games<\/strong> in any genre of the medium. 343 Industries recognized this, and plans to send the games off in a &#8220;<strong>sunset<\/strong>&#8221; of phases by next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"622\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-2-1024x622.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-2-1024x622.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-2-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-2-768x466.jpg 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-2.jpg 1120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, we&#8217;re in Phase 2 of a <strong>4-phase<\/strong> cycle until the inevitable date comes. Last fall, the data from older games in the series was transferred to the <strong><em>Master Chief Collection<\/em><\/strong> in <strong>Phase 1<\/strong>. Currently, <strong>Phase 2<\/strong> has halted digital sales of the Xbox 360 games, although <strong>DLC<\/strong> will remain free for now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"792\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-3.jpg 720w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Halo-3-273x300.jpg 273w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are some key takeaways here. First, the blog shows that <strong>December 18th, 2021 <\/strong>is the soonest the changes could take hold. Second, the <strong>Online Squads<\/strong> and <strong>LAN<\/strong> services will still be possible for most titles. <strong><em>Halo: Combat Evolved<\/em><\/strong>, <strong><em>Spartan Assault<\/em><\/strong>, and <strong><em>Halo Wars<\/em><\/strong> will see minimal changes. Finally, <em>The Master Chief Collection<\/em>&#8216;s versions of the games will not see their services affected whatsoever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it&#8217;s tragic news, the Halo series&#8217; multiplayer experience has had a monumental impact on the genre like no other game. If you didn&#8217;t get a chance to live amidst its legacy, this is your last chance to bask in all of the glory that was playing in the Xbox 360 Halo servers while they&#8217;re still up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/zgmAxjMOFU8\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"Halo 3 PC - Legendary ENDING - YouTube\" \/><figcaption>&#8220;It&#8217;s been an honor serving with you, John.&#8221; -Cortana<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Will you play any of these legendary games one final time?
