      It sounds like they didn’t, but apparently Microsoft forgot to put together a contract for further work they were doing for the Master Chief Collection, so they were able to hold the MCC port of Halo Anniversary hostage contingent on Microsoft removing the clauses that had blocked royalties in their original contract. So they did get royalties for that port that amounted to tens of millions of dollars, but nothing for their original work.
