June 28, 2021 343 Industries Despite being one of the most hotly anticipated next-gen console shooters of 2020, most of us can definitely recall that Halo: Infinite didn't pass its first job interview with flying colours. In fact, you could even say it tanked completely due to a combination of dull gameplay, lacklustre aesthetics and several other notable flaws. Accordingly, the team said they would take it back and improve it, which resulted in the game's release date being postponed to 2021 soon after. Fortunately, Xbox Chief Phil Spencer has assured fans (via a Dropped Frames interview) that there probably won't be any further delays, and that we can all expect to don our Spartan armour by the end of the year.
