Halo Infinite's Troubled Development & The State of 343 Industries - Episode 70

Join the Bonus Accessory crew every Friday as they dive head first into all things Xbox, Xbox Game Pass, & PC gaming. It’s no secret that Halo Infinite’s development hasn’t been the smoothest. From losing both its creative director and executive producer last year, it’s poor reception to its initial gameplay reveal (and then delay announcement) as well as bring back series veteran Joseph Staten, it’s clear that something with the title’s development has been well unclear. But now the project faces another blow to its team in the form of Game Director Chris Lee leaving the project. But is this all part of the new plan? This week, we try to piece together what the hell Halo Infinite’s future looks like, if this project is still on the rails, and if Lee’s departure could indicate an even longer delay than many seem to think. Plus, Phil Spencer & Todd Howard both offer new perspectives into the Bethesda & Xbox exclusivity discussion. Is the inevitable decision going to be one that isn’t as clean as many hope? Also, EA is set to pay out big after the Dutch court sides with its gambling authority over lootbox issues. Is the gaming industry in a perpetual loop when it comes to gambling and lootboxes? Will we every see true evolution with them? All of this and much more on the newest episode of the Game Pass Gamecast!
