Don’t fret, campaign network co-op is still coming

Halo series stewards 343 Industries have given a rather sombre update on the state ofHalo Infinite’s future, and there’s a lot of delays and cancellations. The game’s campaign network co-op, season 3 of multiplayer, and Forge mode have been pushed back, and couch co-op outright cancelled. And if there’s one thing about Halo that you don’t mess with then it would seem that’s couch co-op.

The problem seems to be that players identify the Halo series with couch co-op. That’s got some going as far ascalling Infinitea game “held together with duct tape and broken dreams”. Others are justdisappointedthat they won’t be able to play co-op with their family. Halo Infinite is the first open-world game for Big John Halo though, so you can argue that the series is having to move with the times. At least the campaign network co-op is still coming, which is a featureKatharine’s been waiting onfor months so she can finally play Infinite the way she wants to.
