343 Industries has just announced a Halo-themed cookbook of all things, much to the disappointment of professional players who would have preferred to hear about any new gameplay updates for Halo Infinite instead. The latest installment of Microsoft’s massively influential sci-fi FPS franchise had a strong start when it finally launched on the Xbox Series X last winter, with critics praising Halo Infinite’s single-player campaign for taking Halo’s gameplay and story in bold new directions. Since then, 343 has added to Halo Infinite’s multiplayer with new cosmetic items and game modes, such as the recently added Tactical Slayer playlist.
However, many of these new additions to Halo Infinite have been superficial at best, with many fans left yearning for some major updates and features that were promised during the two-year-long wait for Halo Infinite to arrive. Two major examples of this include the fan-favorite Forge Mode and Campaign Co-op, which were infamously pulled from Halo Infinite to prevent any further delays to the base game. Several months later, neither one of these modes has been added to Halo Infinite despite many rumors and leaks surrounding them, with Forge Mode being pushed back once more from its planned launch as part of Halo Infinite’s Season 2 DLC in May. Another gameplay mode that Halo Infinite fans have been waiting with bated breath for is a multiplayer Battle Royale mode, but it seems that they will have to wait a while longer for such a reveal.
