The HCS 2024 roadmap is here with our first look at the year’s Majors and when the championship tournament will take place.

The demise of Halo and its competitive has always been greatly exaggerated. Considered one of the pioneers of modern esports, Halo will never truly fall off. And the HCS 2024 roadmap is a testament to that fact.

The roadmap shows four team-hosted Major tournaments in the Halo Championship Series. It all culminated in October with the 2024 Halo World Championship. With open series and qualifiers galore, Halo esports may be thriving once again by the end of the year.
