Halo 5: Guardians has garnered a T for Teen rating from the ESRB, making it the first traditional Halo game that isn't
rated M for Mature.

All previous Halo games — aside from the strategy game Halo Wars and the top-down shooters Halo: Spartan Assault
and Halo: Spartan Strike — were rated M.

The ESRB page for Halo 5 lists three content descriptors: "Blood," "Mild Language" and "Violence." Here's the full
rating summary:

Nathan Fillion Asked Halo 5 Devs to Make Him Look More Handsome





by Eddie Makuch
October 16, 2015



Link

By actor Nathan Fillion's own admission, his Halo 5: Guardians character, Edward Buck, looks more
handsome than he does, despite being based on his real-world face. This was no accident. In an
appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Fillion says he asked 343 to make his character model more
good-looking. The developers obliged, and, as you'll see in the video, Fillion is quite pleased with
the result.

Microsoft built Halo 5's weapons 'from scratch' for Xbox One





by Timothy J. Seppala
October 19, 2015

Halo 5: Guardians' soundtrack isn't the only aspect of the game's audio that got an overhaul -- the developers at 343 Industries had to reimagine
what the Xbox One exclusive's weapons sound like, too. Because of the sheer amount of sounds happening at once during firefights, 343 had to
figure out some creative ways to keep the aural calamity in check. It's quite a bit different in scale from 343's last outing, 2012's Halo 4, where
there was had a handful of characters on screen simultaneously, as opposed to 40 or 50 in the forthcoming sequel. "We have many more sounds
and the mixing is a very challenging situation," 343 Industries audio director Sotaro Tojima said in a recent interview. "We're establishing pretty
much all the weapon sounds from scratch again for Xbox One."
