Halo Partners With More Than 10 New Licensees For Apparel, Novelty Items, More

For a megafranchise like Halo, it's not hard to find tie-in products. Whether you're looking for a new t-shirt, a high-end action figure, animated and live-action shorts, or just a novel or comicbook to bring you deeper into that world, you already can.

Now, 343 Industries has announced eleven new merchandising and licensing partners, plus renewed partnerships with four more, all bringing new products to the Halo family starting this fall, and ramping up for the release of Halo Wars 2 next February. That includes bluetooth speakers, temporary tattoos, greeting cards, leggings, video game controllers, ugly Christmas sweaters, lamps, and more: basically, you can fill your entire house with Halo gear starting this fall if you'd like to. Renewed and continuing partnerships include Mattel, The Coop, Skullcandy & ASTRO Gaming, J!NX, and the announcement that Halo comics from Dark Horse Comics will join the Comixology Unlimited subscription service line-up.

"The Halo Nation is built from the best fans in the world who have formed communities around everything from construction toys to dedicated cosplay and competitive esports," stated head of Halo consumer products John Friend in a press release. "By expanding our consumer products line-up with new licensed partners around the world, we're excited to offer even more options for everyone from families and new fans to our core collectors who have been with us for the past 15 years of the Halo franchise."
