Microsoft registers Halo: Spartan Assault domains

Spin-off? TV show? Something else?

Spartans, assault!

Microsoft has registered domains for something called Halo: Spartan Assault.

Microsoft registered SpartanAssault.net, HaloSpartanAssault.com and Halo-SpartanAssault.com, among others, in late May, according to Fusible.

What this is remains a mystery for now. A spin-off game? The name of the Steven Spielberg-produced live action TV show announced at the Xbox One reveal event? Or something completely different?

With E3 looming next week we'll likely know soon enough.
