Although Cloud9 and OpTic Gaming are set to do battle for the 2022 Halo World Championship, 343 Studios is already looking to the future. HCS Lead Tahir “Tashi” Hasandjekic announced the early road map for HCS year 2.
When does HCS Year 2 officially kick-off?
The start of year 2 for the HCS officially kicks off on January 13 when esports organization Spacestation Gaming hosts the SSG Spartan Showdown. Not many details have been said about this tournament thus far but what we do know is that it will feature Forge, a fan favorite in Halo that will come in HCS year 2.

Similarly to the SSG tournament in January, there are very few details about the upcoming OpTic LAN. The tournament will last three days and will be played at the Esports Stadium in Arlington Texas.
