In Halo Infinite's campaign, the Master Chief returns when humanity's fate hangs in the balance to confront the most ruthless foe he's ever faced – the Banished.
Looking at this, I'm with everyone else. This looks like a last-generation title than something for next-gen hardware. On the flip side though, this is allegedly a glimpse back into the past of what made us fall in love with Halo in the first place. Everything was here in this trailer - dual-wielding, armor abilities/power-ups from Halo 3 and Reach, hi-jacking vehicles and raining down the chaos from the driver's seat, and most importantly, this is still the Master Chief that we know and love.
I haven't played Halo 5, so I don't know where his previous adventure has left him, but it seems like he's in for his greatest battle to date - if they aren't all pretty legendary/epic in their own right. Maybe the visuals will improve in time for release but for a first impression, these visuals didn't deliver, but I was stoked to actually play this. If the rumors are true about Microsoft making Xbox Live Gold free to play multiplayer then they have a strong contender to dominate the holidays from that fact alone. Some of my fondest memories in college were all of the gatherings we had in the dorms of 16 player system link Halo matches.
That being said if Microsoft's Xbox has been your console of choice, then you definitely have a bit to look forward to with the Xbox Series X presentation. I'm not going to cover this in it's entirety but I wanted to provide the event in its entirety here for those interested.
