343 studio head Josh Holmes revealed the news on Twitter, but fans will have to wait a little longer to catch a glimpse of the console itself.
@juliocurt There is a limited edition console coming, yes. It hasn't been revealed yet, but it's pretty sweet. :)

The Halo series has a long tradition of launching alongside limited edition consoles - a tradition that dates back to the original Xbox.
A sleek silver Xbox 360 launched with Halo Reach, while the Halo 4-themed Xbox 360 shipped with a custom design and a 320GB hard drive.
Halo 5: Guardians is likely to be heavily featured during Microsoft's E3 conference. The company recently said the conference would prioritise first-party games.
The shooter sequel will be released on October 27 exclusively for Xbox One. A voice actor recently revealed that a familiar character would return in the sequel.
