Halo: Infinite Is So Ambitious It Needed A New Game Engine, Developer Says

343 studio head Chris Lee has since confirmed that Halo: Infinite will tell a more Master Chief-centric story, which is good news after Halo 5 went in a different direction. The story in Halo: Infinite will begin after the events of Halo 5, but that is all we know so far.

Can't wait to see what the new engine does to the looks of this game

Obscure_Observer2909d ago

Amazing! This news will shut the mouth of some people who thinks this game is gonna be MP Only/Always Online.

Spurg2909d ago

Take your sweet time 343i.
I'm also hearing rumors that the single player will release before the multiplayer. The reason for that is because they will both be two different things. Halo have use the same gameplay for single player and multiplayer but I can understand why it will be separate.
Halo infinite will be without a doubt an open world game but may be multiregional open world similar to the Witcher 3. And having traditional Halo multiplayer in that sort on open world environment doesn't quite make sense. That's why it will release separately using more arena based multiplayer.

Sciurus_vulgaris2909d ago

I don't believe the rumors of Halo Infinite launching without MP. Just because the newest Halo maybe open-world doesn't mean the mp will not be arena-focused.

AngelicIceDiamond2909d ago

I don't understand the fascination with chief. I like having multiple main characters such as Lock. Chief is very boring character tbh. While story or character wise I'm not so keen on, from your post it sounds like exploration and hopefully there's leveling with new armor sets and abilities. Maybe even space travel exploration in real time.

Obscure_Observer2909d ago

I belive 343i will make this Halo as big as GTAV

BiggerBoss2909d ago

Lmao, that's pretty funny.

spicelicka2909d ago

I think if it's open world it might be like mass effect, where it's not a seamless world but you have massive locations that are separate form each other. This would be good for diversity, I'd love to travel from Halo rings to Earth to Sanghelios to Requiem. Imagine being able to re-visit Reach in its post-glassing stage.

The trailer gave me alot of halo1 vibes which is a very positive direction imo. Open world halo with main focus on master chief is a big plus for this.

candystop2909d ago

Original Halo theme music is so important. Just brings the world of Halo to life. The trailer gave me similar vibes.

mcstorm2909d ago

I agree. Still not finished 5 as just not had time but now getting through my back log of games going to look at beating 5 and then get ready for 6 as I think with the great sp on 4 and added MP on 5 343i could hit 6 right where it should be.

Ugh not another open world story driven game, that's all they make.

NeoGamer2322909d ago (Edited 2909d ago )

Ummmmm…

The only open world Halo driven story is Halo ODST. All other Halos are chapter driven games in a area not an open world. And even ODST does not open the whole map to the gamer. It opens in sections.

Prince_TFK2909d ago (Edited 2909d ago )

N4G before E3: MS really need a story drive game!

N4G after E3: Not another story driven game!

Anyway, I seriously looking forward to this.

BiggerBoss2909d ago

Do you think that every single person on N4G holds the exact same opinion on everything?

Prince_TFK2909d ago (Edited 2909d ago )

No I don’t. But look around you. Better yet, look in all MS’s articles.

nowitzki20042909d ago

What I say is.. MS really needs some new IPs

After E3... MS still really needs new IPs

No Way2908d ago (Edited 2908d ago )

BiggerBoss - 90% of them. Every article is predictable with the comments that will be in them. Most of them are hateful comments towards the other console or someones opinion; just as nowit just displayed.

I expect this to be announced pretty soon. Can't wait, this game was awesome. I wonder how of a remake it'll be though, hopefully not a remaster because we already have that lol.

S2Killinit228d ago

It needs to be a complete redo of graphics or else its not my cup of tea.

hennessey86228d ago

it will be running on unreal engine 5, so it will look good. The question is will it run as good as it looks

GenoPurpel228d ago

I think they teased it a few months back when they announced Halo studios. It does look quite incredible graphically but as Hennessy says above, how it runs is gonna be a different story given UE5 track record.

darthv72227d ago

it would probably be like the gears of war reloaded. Which was a remake of the remaster of the original.

...this gen is getting confusing with so many re-whatevers.

1Victor227d ago

@S2K: “ It needs to be a complete redo of graphics or else it’s not my cup of tea.”
I completely agree with you and would add a VR mode as well🥺

gold_drake228d ago (Edited 228d ago )

oh yeh, theres like a showcase soon, maybe they'll announce it there.

or at the game awards

but ue5 only looks pretty. the games run ..
abit weird.

Notellin227d ago

It's being shown at the Halo World Championships which they had already announced a few weeks ago.

RaidenBlack228d ago (Edited 228d ago )

Better reboot than another re-touch (remake after an already remaster) .... but 343/Halo is incompetent now, so .... guess this is best they can do with help of Coalition

pwnmaster3000228d ago

So much memories with halo.
The original Xbox was my first console (actually 64 but barely played) and the first game was halo. Me and my brother use to play coop almost everyday.
We eventually traded in for a PS2 because of kingdom hearts lol

maximusprime_228d ago

I played the first 2 Halo games. That's Bungie's Halo.. I do not know whether 343's Halo is as good as Bungie's.

Either ways Halo is one of Microsoft's big franchises. So many rumours so it's becoming more likely it'll come to PS5

darthv72227d ago

Halo 3 is Bungie's game... so is Reach and ODST. 4, 5 & 6 (Infinite) are 343's. They aren't bad... just different. The original trilogy story ended and should have finished there. But MS wanted to 'Star Wars' this franchise and came up with new stories that sort of just sit there.

TheColbertinator227d ago

You haven't missed out much since Bungie left.

Halo CE Mod Adds a New Way to Play Co-Op in the Worst Way Imaginable

This Halo CE mod allows a new way to play co-op, but probably in the worst possible way.

spicelicka423d ago

This looks like cursed halo at its finest, love it. They need to bring mods to consoles.
