Halo Infinite to Release Next Year With Xbox Scarlett

After Microsoft took the wraps off its next-gen Project Scarlett console, it had one more surprise in store for fans: Halo Infinite. The next instalment to the Halo franchise brings back the Master Cheif, and it will launch along with Microsoft’s next Xbox console in 2020.

Powered by the new Slipspace Engine, Microsoft claims the new Halo title takes the popular franchise in “ambitious, unexpected” directions. “The Master Chief returns in 2020 when Halo Infinite releases globally with Project Scarlett. This next chapter in 343 Industries’ legendary Halo franchise invites players to join the venerable Master Chief on an all-new adventure as he uncovers the mysteries surrounding the appearance of The Pilot and the desolate remains of a Halo ring. Halo Infinite is powered by the studio’s next-generation Slipspace Engine,” the company explained.

    <p>You know, I'm not usually impressed by the trailers the industry puts out these days, but they did a good job making me feel like I was looking at real people with real feelings. The graphics were good enough for a next-gen game, and the voice-acting was lovely. Even the AI voice at the end – I assume that was Cortana, but it's been over 10 years since I played a Halo game so I'm not sure…</p>

      <blockquote><em><a href="#434197">In reply to Daekar:</a></em></blockquote><p>Graphics wise the Halo Infinite Teaser is way subpar to what I saw in my Days Gone session yesterday – on my PS4 slim. </p><p>A huge disappointment for the remaining Xbox fans who wanted to get a glimpse of the nextgen Halo.</p>

    <p>It will definitely be better than Halo 5. It’s almost impossible to be that bad again </p>

        <blockquote><em><a href="#434224">In reply to coeus89:</a></em></blockquote><p>It wasn't better than previous games, but saying it was trash is something I also disagree. </p>
