Halo Infinite’s creative head, Joseph Staten, and the game’s community director, Brian Jarrard, have cleared up some things regarding player wants and desires when it comes to multiplayer, revealing that a Cortana AI and playable Elites are not coming anytime soon. 

First reported by GameSpot, the two Halo developers were responding to different tweets, one asking for a Cortana AI to be added to Halo Infinite’s multiplayer and another asking for playable Elites to be added to the game. Unfortunately, for fans wanting either, it doesn’t sound like these features are planned for the title right now. 

In a response to a tweet stating “Day 6 asking joe for Cortana as a multiplayer ai,” Staten said that he appreciates the commitment but that “as much as I love Cortana and [Cortana voice actor Jen Taylor], there are no current plans to make Cortana an AI in multiplayer.”

, there are no current plans to make Cortana an AI in multiplayer.

Elsewhere, Jarrard responded to a fans’ list of wants and desires for Halo Infinite that included playable Elites. Jarrard said he appreciates the fans’ passion and gusto but that he’ll “give it to you straight – We have a lot of fundamental issues to go after. We may eventually get playable Elites but sorry to say it’s not a current priority or actively being worked on right now.” 

I applaud your passion and gusto! But I will give it to you straight — We have a lot of fundamental issues to go after. We may eventually get playable Elites but sorry to say it’s not a current priority or actively being worked on right now.
