Recall that soon after the game was postponed to 2021, rumors spread across the Web about problems with the Xbox One version and the reasons for the numerous troubles with the sci-fi shooter 343 Industries.

In addition to this, over the past years, the project has been losing key developers: in August 2019, creative director Tim Longo left, and at the end of October 2020, the head of development Chris Lee left.

Lee’s departure will not affect production, Klobrille said. According to an insider, from the point of view of content filling Halo Infinite is already “more or less” a finished product.

“The game is more or less ready in terms of content. Now [developers] can fully focus on the technical aspects. I definitely expect Halo Infinite to be released in 2021, ” Klobrille said.

Earlier it became known that the creation of the story campaign was led by the writer and director of the videos of the original Halo trilogy Joseph Staten, and the multiplayer was taken over by the head of the publishing department of the franchise Pierre Hintze.

Halo Infinite is being developed for PC (Steam, Windows 10), Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and S. Rumors of possible abandonment of the Xbox One version were denied by the developers at the end of August.
