Halo: The Master Chief Collection’s PC Flight Three is now available
343 Industries has sent out the first wave of invites for its third Halo: The Master Chief Collection Flight test on PC.
“The first set of users for Steam have been invited today. We are targeting sending out another wave of invitations in the next couple of days,” the developer wrote in a forum post. “This will include expanding flight coverage to the Windows 10 version from the Microsoft Store and Windows 7 version from Steam. These users will be invited in the future as we first need to address a couple blocking issues and re-send them through Rings 1 and 2 to validate.”
