Halo Infinite is Delayed... Why?
5,842Halo Infinite is delayed for almost a year... should we be concerned? Delays are often better than releasing half-finished games, but they are not fool-proof. Following the divisive reaction to the July trailer, many fans were unhappy with the state of Infinite's graphics. This delay is giving them the opportunity to fix these issues. However, we still know very little about the campaign.
343 Industries has seen its creative lead, Chris Lee, depart from developing Halo Infinite. So, who now controls the creative vision? Well, Joseph Staten has returned to Halo. Having written two Halo novels, as well as being the cinematics director for the classic Halo games, he is ideally positioned to assist in directing Halo Infinite towards success.
