What are you doing the week of 27 October?
You're going to want to cancel it. Then take a few days off work. Pull a sickie if you have to. You're just going to want some free hours to pour into Halo 5: Guardians - if the new opening cinematic is anything to go by.

Halo 5: Guardians arrives on Xbox One on 27 October
