Staten said 343 talked about delaying the entire game so it could launch with Forge and campaign co-op ( Halo Infinite was once due out last Christmas), but ultimately decided against it. 'We just have to work through a couple more details and we'll be talking about our actual release date real soon.' Staten acknowledged this, saying 343 is '100 percent committed to releasing this holiday both campaign and our first season of free-to-play multiplayer'. It's a slightly awkward conversation to have now, in August, with Halo Infinite still without a release date. And that's another reason why it's going to take longer, just to make sure it's quality day-one, and people can jump in and play and have fun.' John Linneman, Rich Leadbetter and Alex Battaglia spend the best part of 40 minutes sharing their thoughts on the Halo Infinite technical preview. So, in a co-op scenario that's even more complicated. 'At the same time though, that's complicated when you think about save systems and all the technology that needs to drive this more nonlinear experience. It's this wonderful, wide open, nonlinear take on a Halo campaign, and it's going to offer so much more flexibility to take down Banished bases from all kinds of different angles, to progress through the game in your own way to a certain extent. 'We have the opportunity to play campaign all the time. But again, there are technical complexities there, and it's just going to take time to get it right.' 'As a toolset, it's really advanced, and it's going to hopefully give people the ability to create a whole bunch of new, innovative, novel experiences. Staten went into a bit more detail on why each mode was delayed. 'So, we're going to keep campaign co-op and Forge in the oven for a little bit longer, and then when they're ready we're going to release them as part of our seasonal roadmap next year.' And as a studio, we don't want to ship things if they're not ready, so people can play them, have fun, have a nice stable, performant experience. 'And when we looked at these two experiences, campaign co-op and Forge, we made the determination they're just not ready.

'Our number one priority is making sure whatever we ship, whenever we ship it, it meets the right quality bar across all platforms: Xbox devices, PC in all its different configurations,' Staten said. In the video, below, Joseph Staten, head of creative for Halo Infinite, said it was a 'really tough decision' to delay both modes. It's a big disappointment for the Halo community, with both campaign co-op and Forge considered fundamental to the Halo experience. These target releases are 'subject to change', 343 warned. User creation tool Forge, meanwhile, won't hit the game until season three at the earliest - or about six months after launch. Campaign co-op won't hit the shooter until season two at the earliest, which means about three months after launch.
