[BLOG] Halo 5′s mystery Spartan to be a new character

Halo 5 was announced yesterday and already speculation is rife about what the new game might bring in terms of story, locations, weaponry, vehicles, enemies... and about the identity of the Spartan pictured on the game's launch artwork piece which shows them standing on top of Master Chief with the game's long-time protagonist appearing in a way that looks like the mystery Spartan's reflection in some unseen pool of water.

The answer for the last one came today in the form of a tweet from Josh Holmes who is a dev on the game. Well, sort of.
For everyone speculating about the mysterious Spartan in Halo 5: Guardians, he’s not Palmer (or Cortana!). He’s a NEW character. :) #Halo

'Palmer' refers to Commander Sarah Palmer from Halo 4 and Halo: Spartan Assault and Cortana is Master Chief's long-time companion. So if this tweet is to be believed we can soon count a new character among the ranks of the Spartans who have been named characters in the past Halo games.

Not many more details have yet been released, except for art of a dry, dusty alien settlement which could be a potential location for the next set of Spartan adventurers and inevitable battles. We'll just have to wait until E3 to get the big reveals though.
Yes that's Minecraft-me in my av. Done by Reiu who is damn talented!
