Halo Infinite - Inside Infinite – December 2020

Hey everyone, I’m Joseph Staten. If you’ve been a longtime part of the Halo community, you may already know me. If you’re new to the community: Hello! It’s great to meet you.

I was part of the Bungie team who made Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3 ODST and Halo Reach. I came up on the design side of these projects, wearing many different hats over the years including writer, cinematic director, creative director—even a voice for the Grunts.

After Reach shipped, I became a Halo fan, cheering-on 343i from the sidelines. But I’ve spent the last four months immersing myself back into the Halo universe, and it’s my honor as creative director to help our team ship Halo Infinite in Fall 2021.

Yep, that’s when the game is coming out. And from now until then, every one of us at 343i and our great partner teams will be building, testing, and polishing an experience we hope all of you love.

I joined 343i right as the team was wrestling with feedback from the July campaign demo. This discussion boiled down to one fundamental truth: we needed more time to do things right. That included pushing hard in the Fall, giving the team time to recharge over the Holidays, and then coming back in January to finish the game at a healthy place" to keep the verbs consistent.

Because Halo Infinite in the Fall of 2021… is just the beginning of the adventure.

I’ll be back at the end of the update for some closing thoughts, but now, Brian, take it away!
I wonder how much they gonna let Joe change for the campaign? Since its fall 2021 now theres time for him to write some big changes.

Fall 2021 is a helluva push back, but the screenshots in the article actually built up a little hype in me. I might actually be looking forward to seeing what they have by e3 now.

I just wanna say to xbots....you're welcome. Because of the Sony Familia, your game will actually look and run decently (hopefully). :wow:

It did run well, but now the graphics should probably improve.

I always figured the reason it looked like shyt is because I think they wanted it to run 60 FPS on both platforms.

Craig did this game dirty.:wow:

Anyways, Fall 2021 make total sense given it’s the 20th anniversary of Halo CE.
If it's pushed that far back, then the game has to surpass Halo 5 from an multiplayer standpoint and Halo 4 from an campaign standpoint, if they want people to believe they can make a quality Halo title.
