Microsoft Corp’s Xbox team announced the delay of one of the most awaited video games, Halo Infinite, while the game console Xbox Series X is due for release in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to a statement posted on the Halo Twitter account, the decision to move the release is the consequence of various determinants contributing to the growing hurdles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The delay of the launch was caused by the difficulties of working from home protocols to comply with COVID-19 work arrangements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We have made the difficult decision to shift our release to 2021 to ensure the team has adequate time to deliver a Halo<\/em> game experience that meets our vision.”<\/p>Studio Head for Halo Point <\/em>Chris Lee<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
The multibillion-dollar franchise Halo made its debut in the first Xbox release almost two decades ago. The delay may take a critical blow to the sales of the new Xbox Series X console, which was reported to be on sale in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Considered as essential in the progress of Infinite, the blog post added details concerning the video game to serve as an update with the waiting community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I want to acknowledge the hard work from our team at 343 Industries, who have remained committed to making a great game and finding solutions to development challenges,\u201d according to the blog post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Lee also noted that it is not sustainable for the well-being of their team or the game\u2019s overall success if they ship it this holiday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The release of Halo Infinite, originally announced at the E3 2018 conference, made waves when it was unveiled during a video presentation for the highly anticipated Xbox Series X games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This decision didn’t escape the lashing of the game’s graphics and gameplay in the footage, as these received critical feedback from the fans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Furthermore, according to Microsoft’s Xbox chief, Phil Spencer, the decision was already foreseen that might happen shortly this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I’d say the bigger unknown is probably the game production, just being honest… Game production is a large scale entertainment activity now, you have hundreds of people coming together, building assets, working through creative.” \u00a0<\/p>Phil Spencer, Microsoft’s Xbox Chief <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
During Microsoft’s 2020 fiscal year, gaming reproduced 8% of the entire revenue until June 30. It maintained 1.7 percent the preceding year while people anticipated a replacement to the Xbox One released during 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, separate games designated to Xbox and Sony Corp.’s PlayStation have also been postponed. Spencer also mentioned that the development was harder to compromise due to the pandemic, considering the console-building schedule.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
