With these big departures from 343 Industries, it remains unknown what the next big step for the franchise is. Halo Infinite eventually received its Campaign Co-op, Forge, and Mission Replay modes recently, as all of them were part of the highly-requested features by fans. However, Halo Infinite still doesn’t have a large portion of players on PC as a free-to-play experience, which puts it far behind its competitors in the case of an active player base.
The development of Halo Infinite didn’t go as planned, withMicrosoftdelaying the game’s release for an entire year. Unfortunately, the game wasn’t completely ready at its December 2021 launch, lacking some big features such as campaign co-op and mission replay. The troubled development of the game continued to affect its post-launch plans as well, which is one of the reasons why players left Halo Infinite’s multiplayer after a few months. 343 Industries delivered only two seasons of content in a year along with the Winter Update that contains most of the anticipated content.
Currently, Certain Affinity is working on aspecial Halo Infinite projectthat is yet to be announced. Some believe it could be a new take on the Battle Royale genre, but an official reveal is still pending.
