The Halo franchise is known to almost every gamer. The first part was released back in 2001. Initially, it was published for the Xbox. After the console release, it came to the PC. Now, this is a very famous series of games that amazes graphically and pleases gamers with new gameplay. Halo Infinite is another part of a great series. Halo Infinite is a multiplayer video game in the genre of the first-person shooter.

Development history

The game was announced on June 10, 2018, at E3. Halo Infinite is developed by 343 Industries, powered by the new Slipspace Engine, and published by Microsoft Studios.

Release Date:

The Halo Infinite release date is December 8, 2021, and will be available on Xbox One, Xbox series, and Windows 10.

Technological features

The game engine is written from scratch and planned to use on both PC and Xbox consoles. It supports split-screen mode for four-player games. At 343i, PC development is a priority. The team pays particular attention to the unique anti-cheat system.

Plot

The plot of the original game tells the story of the war between the people of the UNSC and the alien races who call themselves the Covenant. People try to survive at any cost, but they are losing on the entire front line. The only salvation of people is the new project SPARTANETS. The target of this program is to create perfect soldiers. To do this, scientists have changed the genes of the experimental, so that they were the ideal weapon for the war with aliens.

All laboratories and scientists associated with this project are located on a planet called The Reach. But the Covenant is not asleep and finds the planets and bombard them abundantly to prevent the earthlings from getting weapons for the war against them.

About the game

From the announcement at E3, it became known that Halo: Infinite is being created on the new Slipspace Engine, promising to focus on the history of the Master Chief and continue the events described in Halo 5: Guardians. In doing so, Infinite will offer a new art style “drawing inspiration from the franchise’s past and most iconic releases.” Team 343 Industries also said they “clearly heard” fan criticism of Halo 5. For example, fans said they wanted to play more as the Master Chief. In Infinite, they will have such an opportunity. The project focuses primarily on him.

Halo Infinite: Flight plan 2

Studio 343 Industries, working on the mysterious Halo Infinite, spoke about the “flight plan 2” – an analog of early access to the game. Within its framework, groups of players will be allowed to play Halo Infinite before the release.

The flight program is not a beta, as was the case with Halo 5. They want to build relationships with the community and plan to build them gradually. They will invite people to try their game, and people, in turn, will share impressions, based on which they will continue to work.

The release dates of Flight plans are September 23-26 and September 30-October 3 respectively. Halo Infinite is the 6th installment of the popular science-fiction video game series from Bungie and 343 Industries, a subsidiary of Microsoft Studios.
