Halo Online

Halo Online was a free-to-play multiplayer-only Halo game that was tested exclusively in Russia.
The game was cancelled on August 24, 2016, when the developer, Saber Interactive, announced that "the current form of Halo Online will not be released." The reason they gave for the cancellation was that Microsoft had "failed to [make] decisions on the future of the project."
==Gameplay==
The multiplayer mode was based on a modified version of Halo 3s engine and featured several classic weapons, vehicles, and maps, in addition to some new maps.IGN - Halo Online is a Free-to-Play PC Shooter Coming only to Russia One of the new maps was set in a Russian town. Match player counts varied between 4 and 16 players.
Though the game lacked a campaign, the War Games simulations depicted took place shortly after the events of Halo 3 on a secret UNSC space station called Anvil.
