Halo Infinite | Release date, plot, everything we know
In this article constantly updated we will collect all the information about the game that will come out and what we already know, in order to communicate everything that is sure about the return of one of the most important shooters of all time.
The story
First let's clarify it right away, Halo Infinite is Halo 6, the continuation of Halo 5 Guardians. Many people were confused by the announcement since 343 has finally decided to abandon the numerical name to focus on more impactful subtitles. To create further disorder was the general design of the production, completely revolutionized to combine old and new in a combination that can appeal to both old and new fans. This reinterpretation of the interior art design has led 343 to define Halo Infinite a soft reboot of the saga, keeping characters and narration unchanged, but modifying some aspects seen in the last Halo 4 and Halo 5.Halo is Infinite, the Master Chief will work with Brohammer – the marines seen in the trailer) – to return “home” and join in the exhausting battle for survival. The story will be set on what is very likely to be Omega Halo , the seventh ring, it was conquered by the Banished, the faction happened by Atriox and already seen in Halo Wars 2. Chief must defeat the Lord of war Eschirum, the commander managed to take control of the ring. There is no trace of Cortana, and of Prometici, but it is very likely that you will be alive in the course of history.
The game
343 has worked to make Halo Infinite a “new beginning” , something that could meet the tastes of new players and at the same time to enter in the heart of the most nostalgic. From this point of view, the study has reconstructed the art design, creating a hybrid between the old chapters Bungie, and modern ones of Halo 4 and 5. For this, I died 343 has kept climbing and the sprint, but at the same time removing a number of skills that are ancillary, such as the ground pound or rocket Thruster, replaced by a more simple somersault. Everything is more immediate and frenetic, especially with the introduction of the grappling hook that allows you to draw us into enemies or reach places which are inaccessible by encouraging the verticality of the environments.unlike the other chapter of the saga, Halo Infinite will be a game open map . You will then have the macro areas that can be explored, where you can also go back after a mission, carry out activities, secondary, and unlock upgrades unspecified. Be careful though, we don't have a structure RPG like Far Cry, but on the contrary, will have most features from metroidvania, in which you can take advantage of the equipment to access in certain areas. The ring will have also a fauna and a cycle of day and night complete.
At a technical level the game will use a new graphic engine, the Slipspace Engine . It is a work that took several years of development and design; Halo had, in fact, need a completely new engine and enter in the new generation to support 4K at 60 FPS, the engine that was not changed since the launch of Combat Evolved in 2001. The same has been designed to favour the updates, because Halo Infinite will be a game platform, that is to say an experience is constantly updated with new storylines, multiplayer maps and much more. We must however point out that Halo Infinite has a linear story with a beginning, a middle, and end already written. At launch, the campaign – as big as Halo 4 and Halo 5 together – will be fully playable from the beginning to the end.
will come back the split-screen two-player and online co-op up to 4. Also all the component Esports will be essential and will be curated by Esport Engine, true experts in the field. The multiplayer is not, we still have the official details.
