Here, you&#8217;ll find the Perspective skull on the ground just off to the side. If you&#8217;ve already completed the first mission, then simply load Rally Point Bravo, which drops you in post-cutscene.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have the skull, you&#8217;ll need to enable it, which means starting a new game on your most recent mission or rally point and toggling Perspective in the skull menu before launching. <\/p>\n<p>The third-person perspective the game gives you is relatively close to the shoulder, so it&#8217;s not too bad when you&#8217;re indoors. When you use a scoped weapon and zoom, it will revert back to first-person, so you can still shoot your magnum like you would otherwise. <\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"2a833d38-850f-11f1-8699-c91b04034d3e\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"2026 games\" data-dimension48=\"2026 games\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:661px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:98.94%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"6offQUY4CXebir2TC27dMd\" name=\"kingdom come 2 square\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/how-to-play-third-person-in-halo-campaign-evolved.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"661\" height=\"654\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/new-pc-games-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"2a833d38-850f-11f1-8699-c91b04034d3e\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"2026 games\" data-dimension48=\"2026 games\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>2026 games<\/strong><\/a>: All the upcoming games<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Our all-time favorites<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-50-best-free-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Free PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Freebie fest<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-fps-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best FPS games<\/strong><\/a>: Finest gunplay<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-rpgs-of-all-time\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best RPGs<\/strong><\/a>: Grand adventures<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-co-op-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best co-op games<\/strong><\/a>: Better together<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/halo\/campaign-evolved-third-person-perspective\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new skull modifiers added in Halo: Campaign Evolved do all sorts of things.
