Halo: Campaign Evolved soundtrack — Full list of songs and who composed the score — Gaming

Now that Halo: Campaign Evolved is unleashed upon the world, having rebuilt the original adventure in Unreal Engine 5, its iconic chant-driven main theme is sure to be wowing a new generation as we speak.

The ground-up remake of Halo: Combat Evolved launched on 28 July 2026 for Xbox Series X/S, PC and, for the first time, PlayStation 5. Xbox confirmed ahead of time that the game features a remastered soundtrack, alongside updated sound design and newly recorded voice performances.

But who composed those iconic tunes and where can you currently listen to them? Keep on reading for everything you need to know about the music of Halo: Campaign Evolved.

Who composed the score for Halo: Campaign Evolved?

The original Halo score was written by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori for Bungie, and their music has remained the sonic identity of the franchise ever since.

O'Donnell went on to score Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach, as well as Bungie's Destiny, while Salvatori has co-composed across the wider Halo catalogue.

Their work blends the celebrated chant of the main theme with orchestral suites, ambient textures and driving combat cues, giving the campaign its sweeping, cinematic feel. For Halo: Campaign Evolved, that score has been remastered to sit alongside the remake's Unreal Engine 5 visuals and rebuilt audio.

In the new game's credits, Joel Yarger is listed as senior music producer, so we'd wager that he led the charge on this remastering process. He previously worked on Halo Infinite and numerous games outside of the Halo franchise.
