The official box art forHalo Infinitewas released earlier today and is very similar to theCombat Evolvedbox art. Everything from the curved Halo ring in the background, the Master Chief holding an assault rifle, the scenery, even the ship in the top left bears a resemblance to the position of the Banshee in theCombat Evolvedbox art.
For how similar it is to theCombat Evolvedbox art, theHalo Infinitebox art seems to contain further details. On the Master Chief’s left arm there appears to be some kind of black device not seen in any other design. This could potentially imply that a grapple hook mechanic may be featured inHalo Infinite. Also, the large expansive nature of the background could also align with the rumors thatHalo Infinitemight be open world.
If these box art similarities are any guide, then hopefullyHalo Infinitewill draw a lot of inspiration from the classicHaloformula, while also integrating new game mechanics and concepts. With theXbox Series X eventpremiering tomorrow, fans will finally know what to expect in terms of this game.
That being said, many in the gaming community are still somewhat skeptical. After all, this is the first time that gameplay will be showcased in the two years sinceHalo Infinitewas announced. Not to mentionthe creative director ofHalo Infinitestepped downduring the final year of its development. These signs aren’t exactly good, but nobody will truly know until the Xbox Series X event premiers tomorrow.
Halo Infiniteis set to launch during the Holiday of 2020.
