343 Industries said campaign co-op and Forge won’t be available at launch, which is disappointing to say the least.
Taken from Engadget … Halo Infinite is on track to hit Xbox consoles, PC and Xbox Cloud Gaming sometime this holiday season, but some key modes will be missing at the outset. In a development update, 343 Industries said campaign co-op and Forge won’t be available at launch, as the studio is focusing on the single-player campaign and multiplayer modes.
“Unfortunately, as we focused the team for shutdown and really focused on a quality experience for launch, we made the really tough decision to delay shipping campaign co-op for launch,” Halo Infinite head of creative Joseph Staten said in the video. “We also made the tough call to delay shipping Forge past launch as well.”
…
Halo Infinite wasn’t ready in time for the Xbox Series X/S launch last November. As such, Microsoft delayed the game until a year after it was initially supposed to arrive.
As for the specific Halo Infinite release date, Staten said 343 Industries plans to announce that soon. Along with the single-player campaign, there’s a free-to-play multiplayer mode. You’ll just have to remain patient a bit longer if you want to play through the campaign with your buddies.
