Microsoft has delayed Halo Infinite into 2021, but notes that it won't impact the launch of the Xbox Series X.
Microsoft has delayed Halo Infinite into 2021, citing developmental challenges.
Previously, Halo Infinite was slated to launch in the Holiday season of 2020, alongside Microsoft's next-gen Xbox Series X. Microsoft has reiterated that Halo Infinite's delay will not impact the console itself. Xbox Series X is confirmed to launch in November 2020, alongside the full library of Xbox One backward compatible titles and games such as The Medium.
In a blog post on Halo Waypoint, Microsoft offered some detail on Halo Infinite's delay, and how 343i has been impacted by Microsoft's wider corporate work-from-home policy, owing to the Covid-19 pandemic.
While it may sting a little that the Xbox Series X won't drop with its big-name exclusive at launch, ensuring Halo Infinite launches in a high-quality state is of the utmost importance. Halo has declined in mainstream popularity in recent years and certainly isn't the trendy game played by youngsters as it once was. Halo Infinite will launch with a free-to-play multiplayer component in addition to its premium campaign experience, set in a wider sandbox with a broader scope. It has every chance to capture mainstream attention with this formula, but only if it ships with the quality expected of a next-gen AAA franchise.
