Halo Infinite: The title will be the last standalone chapter coming out in the near future

Fans of Bungie Studios, the software-house known for developing the Halo first-person shooter video game series, are familiar with the company's obsession with the number seven, which can be found in dozens of hidden references within their most famous titles. After I got to give a first look at the gameplay of Halo Infinite, the sixth installment of the famous series, fans are already wondering what will happen in the future, on the occasion of the release of the seventh main title. To answer these questions was Chris Lee, the studio head of 343 Industries, in an interview granted to IGN, revealing that Halo Infinite it will be the last “traditional” standalone of the series for a long time.

Halo Infinite is the start of our forward-looking platform. Our desire is for Infinite to grow over time, rather than moving to numbered titles and having all that fragmentation. It's about creating and managing Halo Infinite as the beginning of a journey for at least the next ten years, and building it alongside our fans and our community.

According to what was declared Halo Infinite will be the last standalone game of the famous series, but players will still have the opportunity to continue following the story of the title, which will evolve through the release of some updates that will improve the video game and the platform and add content following the 'advance in technology over the years. This would be a big change to the approach of Microsoft products to the franchise of Halo, so we just have to wait for more information. During the highly anticipated event Xbox Games Showcase, the first gameplay video of the title was shown, which in addition to offering a first look at the game mechanics, also gives us some hints on what will be the plot of the title. Halo Infinite will be one of the main launch titles of Xbox Series X, the next generation console from Microsoft, arriving later this year.
