When the Halo TV series premieres next year on Paramount+, viewers probably won’t have to know a lot of the intricacies of the canon to enjoy the show. Developer 343 Industries has confirmed that the series will take place in its own separate continuity, despite earlier rumors suggesting it might be set in the same world as the Xbox games. In a video shared by the Halopedia Twitter account, that news was confirmed by Kiki Wolfkill of 343 Industries, who is also one of the show’s executive producers. Wolfkill confirmed that the new timeline even has its own name: the Halo Silver timeline.
The upcoming Halo TV show now has its own canon status! It falls under something called the “Halo Silver Timeline”.According to @k_wolfkill, this was done to help protect both the Core Canon and the TV show’s story, letting each evolve to best suit the medium that they are on. pic.twitter.com/e3YAv5UDUm
