The Halo Encyclopedia is an upcoming reference book originally set to be published on March 29, 2022 by Dark Horse in conjunction with 343 Industries, but was later delayed to April 13, 2022. The book is a successor to the previous Halo Encyclopedia released in 2009, and features numerous custom-made pieces of artwork by both 343 in-house artists and several images and designs created by the fan mod Sins of the Prophets[1] and Halo: A Fistful of Arrows creator Levi Hoffmeier.[3]
The book will include elements from across two decades of Halo history, including content from Halo Infinite.[1]
An additional deluxe edition variant will be available, containing an exclusive lithograph, a unique cover and slipcase inspired by the Forerunner Cylix.[6]
