Series director Frank O’Connor stated there is a very high chance Halo 5 could get a PC version within the near future. All the real work for a potential PC version is already done and would only need Microsoft's approval to get a port made.

You know, Microsoft has made a huge commitment trying sort of… I think normalise the Windows experience across multiple platforms. You see the elements of Windows 10 are going to appear in Xbox and Cortana and stuff like that. There is plenty of chance that Halo 5 could appear on the PC. Nothing to announce at this point. It’s absolutely not out the bounds of reason, but you know, we developed the game on an Intel platform. It wouldn’t be the hardest thing in the world to move it to PC and take advantage of PC stuff. But nothing I announce today on this chat.

DLC Bonus Per Retailer:
Not all deals are created equal. GameStop, for instance, does not have any bonuses besides a "unique" DLC bonus, while retailers like Walmart only offer bonus incentives and have no unique DLC. The best offers might be those that include both, but in case you're a big fan and want a specific set of unique DLC, here's the breakdown of who's offering what:
  • Amazon: Projection SMG with Long Barrel and the Saturnine Visor
  • Microsoft: Lagrange Assault Rifle Weapon Skin, Recon Assault Rifle with Energy Bayonet.
  • Best Buy: Athlon Armor and Longshot Assault Rifle
  • GameStop: Spartan Locke Armor Set

Update: To clarify, these are just DLCs that unlocks said weapon/armor skins above. They are as far as we know cosmetic in nature and won't change gameplay. You'll be able to unlock all the items above after launch.
