Gamers can relive Halo on the small screen when the highly anticipated science-fiction series debuts Thursday, March 24, exclusively on Paramount+.

Executive produced by Steven Spielberg, the TV show is adapted from the popular first-person shooter video game about a 26th-century intergalactic war between the United Nations Space Command and the Covenant, an alliance of alien races. Pablo Schreiber stars as Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, the leader of the genetically engineered Spartan supersoldier squad; Natascha McElhone as Dr. Halsey, the creator of the Spartans; Jen Taylor as the AI character Cortana; and Yerin Ha as Kwan, the daughter of a military leader on the planet Madrigal.

How to Watch Halo Online

The only way to watch Halo is with a subscription to Paramount+, which costs $5 per month for the Essential plan or $10 for the Premium package. (Note that Paramount Network is separate from the on-demand streaming service.) Both subscription options include access to Paramount+ original content including the Yellowstone prequel series 1883, Star Trek Picard and Discovery, Mayor of Kingstown, RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, Why Women Kill and more; movies and shows from BET, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, MTV and Smithsonian channel; and Paramount feature films such as Scream, The Fighter, Django Unchained and others.

Subscribers of Paramount+ Premium can also access their local CBS station live, watch CBS sports (including March Madness, Champions League and NFL games), enjoy commercial-free content (with the exception of live TV and select shows), stream on up to three devices, create profiles for different family members and download content for offline viewing.

New customers are able to watch Halo for free on Paramount+ during the seven-day trial. Paramount+ is also available as an add-on to subscribers of Amazon Prime Video.
