HALO INFINITE Will Feature Dynamic Weather Conditions And Exploration Will Be Rewarded

The next entry in the acclaimed Halo series, titled Halo: Infinite, was announced by Microsoft during their annual E3 conference this June. Sadly, we have to wait at least until next year's E3 to learn more about the mysterious title, as 343 Industries seems to enjoy keeping their secrets close to the vest and the only thing we know is that Master Chief will return from his side-quest in Halo 5: Guardians.

Director of the Halo franchise at 343 Industries Frank O'Connor has decided to break the radio silence and revealed during a recent conversation with a fan that Halo: Infinite will make some changes to the old formula, as the title will feature dynamic whether conditions to help you immerse yourself in the Halo world, as "the water will be varied" and "natural landscapes will feature prominently."

O'Connor later added that "exploration will rewarded," strongly suggesting that Halo: Infinite might in fact have a semi open world the player will have a chance to freely traverse, unlike the majority of previous games in the series. Considering that 343 has built a brand new engine, Slipspace, to power Infinite, this Xbox exclulsive might actually be a next-gen title, like Starfield and IronCold’s Alien game.

The snow in our Xmas card of the e3 scene is temporary. The water will be varied. Natural landscapes will feature prominently. We know which Ring it is. Exploration will be rewarded. Corndogs plz. Mustard.
