While gamers are still waiting for ‘Halo Infinite’, this new, new set of releases may keep them excited for a while. 343 Industries and Microsoft have shared a new batch of screenshots, showcasing the Halo Infinite game and giving us a glimpse of how Xbox Series x and Xbox Series S title images have evolved. As you can see from the recap, the Pacific Northwest-inspired Halo environment is grittier, more realistic and next-gen.
As mentioned in the blog post, Infinite introduces redesigned enemies like jackals and grunts to look similar to their original versions, according to art director Justin Dinges.

“We have specifically chosen to embark on the Chief’s journey in Halo Infinite inside the Pacific Northwest forest biome on Halo’s new ring, an ode specifically to the past. Another good example is how we’ve brought the visual design of the Jackals and Grunts back closer to what they looked like in Halo 3 and previous titles. We want players to experience these designs, like meeting an old friend, and experiencing all that Halo Infinite has to offer, ”said Dinges.
All of this comes in addition to some improvements in the ambient lighting system that can change mood based on the time of day.
Halo Infinite is expected to drop this year. But it is not yet clear what development Halo’s graphic evidence will improve by then. For now, looking at the screenshots, it is certain that both 343 Industries and Microsoft will provide better visual notes for the entire gameplay.
