<p>If you don&#8217;t like big letter M&#8217;s on your game cases, then <em><a href="https://bagogames.com/halo-5-guardians-pax-east-2015-hands/">Halo 5: Guardians</a></em> has a surprise for you. The game will be the first in the numbered series entry to sport a T for Teen rating, according to the ESRB.</p>
<p>The rating bureau&#8217;s description seems rather standard for the franchise. Players will reportedly be wielding &#8220;pistols, machine guns, grenade launchers, and futuristic weapons&#8221; to kill (who else?) &#8220;alien and human enemies in &#8220;frenetic&#8221; combat. Battles will naturally feature &#8220;realistic gunfire, explosions, and occasional blood-splatter effects&#8221; while characters will be snapping necks and stabbing people.</p>
<p>The real highlight of the description? Apparently <em>Halo 5</em> will be one for dialogue. <span style="line-height: 1.5;">“The word &#8220;a*s&#8221; is used, but more interesting are the insults, &#8220;I have copulated…with your genetic progenitors!&#8221; and &#8220;Your father was a filthy colo and your mother was a hole in the wall!&#8221; Plug your ears, young Spartans.</span></p>
<p>However many creative insults the game&#8217;s solo campaign has is something we&#8217;ll have to wait to see this fall, but we do know it&#8217;ll be <a href="https://bagogames.com/halo-5s-main-campaign-twice-as-long-halo-4s/">twice as long</a>. Multiplayer trash-talking will no doubt depend on your own vocabulary.</p>
<p><em>Halo 5: Guardians</em> hits Xbox One his <strong>Oct. 27th </strong>and for pre-download a week early via a <a href="https://bagogames.com/halo-5-has-limited-edition-xbox-one-it-looks-this-good/">special console bundle</a> modeled after the polish of the UNSC.</p>
