TORONTO – The fifth installment of Microsoft’s hit gaming series Halo will be available for Xbox One on October 27.

Two new trailers for Halo 5: Guardians debuted Sunday night during the season finale of The Walking Dead. But the trailers don’t include any actual game footage – both are filmed in live-action.

The trailers do suggest that players will be able to control two different characters in the game – Master Chief, the main character from the previous Halo games, and Lock, a new super solider.
