HaloFest is happening tonight. Microsoft and 343 Industries are kicking off the launch of the Master Chief Collection for Xbox One with HaloFest. They're also going to use the opportunity to give you your first look at the Halo 5: Guardians, present the world premier of the digital series Halo: Nightfall and exclusive interviews from the folks behind Halo. Here's how you're going to watch it across phone, tablet, PC and TV.
Xbox One
The easiest way to watch HaloFest? Xbox One of course. On your dashboard, you should see a promo card for HaloFest. Just click that to launch the Xbox Live Events app. There you'll see a timer counting down the remaining time until HaloFest starts. Once it starts you'll be able to watch live on your Xbox One.
Xbox.com
Not near your Xbox One tonight, but still want to watch? No worries, just head to the Xbox.com website to catch HaloFest in your browser of choice.
- Go to Xbox.com/HaloFest
Windows Phone
In the Windows Phone Store, you'll find an app called Live Video Player from Microsoft. This is the app the Xbox team has used in the past to stream live events to Windows Phone. We aren't seeing Microsoft promote it this time around as a way to watch HaloFest on Windows Phone, so it may not work! But download just in case. Don't worry, we have a back up involving Twitch if you want to watch HaloFest on your Windows Phone.
Twitch
Microsoft and 343 Industries will also be streaming HaloFest on the official Xbox Twitch account. This ensures you're able to watch on Windows Phone using an app like Livegaming (an unofficial Twitch app).
Microsoft Stores
Select Microsoft Stores will also be streaming HaloFest. So if you head to your local Microsoft Store for Halo launch festivities you won't have to miss HaloFest while you're in line!
The HaloFest broadcast starts tonight (November 10) at 8 p.m. PT.
How are you going to watch HaloFest tonight? I'll be watching on my Xbox One.
