Halo: Infinite Gets a New Trailer, Will Launch With Project Scarlett

From Cinelinx:

Master Chief fans have been waiting a while for the return of the beloved FPS franchise and Xbox gave them something to look forward to with a gorgeous new Halo: Infinite trailer at their E3 briefing.

[naruga]

lol they played alone and still finished second ...the whole show was a boredome ..Gears Forza Halo ..

[NecrumOddBoy]

It was a terrible Xbox show but there's a lot of good multiplatform stuff. Halo Infinite does NOT look nextgen. The trailer was very 2017 TBH.

[bouzebbal]

Lip sync is still devs enemy number one,.. Eats monsters for breakfast but devs aren't capable of pulling decent lip sync, even CG..

[Potnoodle999]

Agreed and it’s finished.....I honestly keep watching their conferences/content because I keep thinking and hoping that eventually they may convince me to buy another Xbox console. I haven’t bought one since 360.... I just don’t get it! I don’t get why they can’t do it! Sony and Nintendo do it every time effortlessly!
I will (still) not buy an Xbox one and I will likely not buy Scarlett based on what they showed. The only interesting things they showed were multi platform ( but man cyberpunk looked INSANE, SO GOOD)
When you play lil John alongside gears, that shows just what the frame of mind is of the devs and MS. I will never get the last 2 hours back🤨

[PlayableGamez-]

Nintendo needs a lot of improvement. Don't even start.

[Orbilator]

Well it was a bore fest for sure. I liked the one with the dear but really apart from the multiplat nothing blew me away, some nice halo footage of game would have topped it off. I gather the halo stuff was all real-time? Although it wasn't stated. Gosh another let down for sure

[Vegamyster]

I can't say i'm shocked, next-gen consoles come next year so i don't expect much this E3 in general.

[Vandamme21]

Lmao 😂

[CobraKai]

I was honestly hoping they’d capitalize. Make me X-Cited for X-Box again, but you’re right. Gears Forza Halo. Like every conference since The One debuted.

[DaDrunkenJester]

Yep, that's all they showed. No new game from Ninja Theory, no new footage of Battletoads and Ori 2, no new acquisition announcement, nothing good in the GamePass department... damn only Halo, Gears, and Forza again?

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Boring show in my opinion but halo, gears, forza

[Potnoodle999]

Was such a bore except the multi plats... the devs could just release trailers for them separately so it’s not why I watch these shows. Always looking for exclusives.... Xbox has absolutely nothing that interests me.... still.
I just don’t see how they can keep failing hahahaha

[Zeref]

That's kinda crazy bro. Did you watch the same thing i watched?

Purely Xbox highlights:
GamePass got major boost
Elite Controller V2
xCloud console streaming for free. Basically killed Stadia right there.
Flight Simulator looked insane.
Minecraft Dungeons looked suprisingly good
Tales game on Xbox.
Phantasy Star Online 2 exclusive to Xbox in the west is megaton lvl.
Halo Infinite Trailer
Forza Horizon Lego DLC
Outer Worlds on GamePass day one.
Metro Exodus on Gamepass
all indies shown will be on GamePass.
Project Scarlett announced with Hardware raytracing(Something which PS5 seems to lack)

3rd party:

Cyberpunk 2077
DragonBall Looks amazing
Elden Ring

[Ratchet75]

You do know Hardware raytracing is parte of the Navi gpu.
Don 't you???
And you do know what gpu is inside ps5???? 😉😉😉

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Brother I watched the same time, I found boring bc no new 1st AAA ips, all the same, and other I could of seen in different so yeah I seen the show

[Zeref]

@Ratchet75

Actually not every Navi has Hardware Raytracing.

Navi 10 for example doesn't have dedicated raytracing. It does support it but it's not specialized for it.

Navi 20 which is part of the new RDNA architecture has Hardware Raytracing. Both AMD(At AMDs keynote) and Microsoft specifically confirmed that Project Scarlett is using RDNA Architecture therefore it has Hardware Raytracing as mentioned at the E3 Reveal.

Meanwhile when talking about PS5, AMD never mentioned Hardware Raytracing nor RDNA. And neither did Sony. Which makes me think they are using Navi 10, also known as Navi lite.

Here is the wording at the AMD conference.

Looks great but I'm a bit disappointed it will still launch on Xbox One as well, I'd rather see them go all out on the new system.

[DaDrunkenJester]

Unfortunately launch titles usually try and bridge the gap, and you dont start seeing a new consoles full potential until year 2-3

[ginsunuva]

I think xbone owners would feel shafted if they only got one halo game the entire generation

[ic3fir3]

this is a reboot??
halo 1 2 3 etc on the same game?
ou back in time loop?
im confuse

[Spurg]

Damn....I didn't know people on NG4 were so clueless.
Time loop???
Have you even played Halo

[ic3fir3]

i play all halos, but is so many years befor,
explains to me that I do not remember it's been many years since I played halo.

[PhantomS42]

This is going to be after Halo 5 but there will probably be a time jump from the ending of Halo 5 to this game.

[Prince-Ali]

theres NO WAYYY This is running on Scarlatti! this doesn't look better than Uncharted 4 and that came out in 2016 so theres no way in the blue hellll this is Scarlet.

[dRanzer]

When it comes to animation and real time face animation MAYBE.
But the overall look is definitely next gen

[Prince-Ali]

Are you NUTS... Look at the detail in the clothing textures... the Lighting is good but its easily comparable to what we have now and not even top tier lighting... the game CAN NOT be running on Scar lool...

[ic3fir3]

is because this halo ill run 60fps 4k or 120fps 1080p, and have coop and big maps on campaing.
uncharted is linear, 30fps
Halo on 30fps is easy get better graphics

[xX-oldboy-Xx]

But that was cinematic trailer, it was horrible to say the least.

[DaDrunkenJester]

@oldboy

Pretty sure it said that it was a real time in engine scene, but I could he wrong. The facial features aren't top notch, but you could tell with the lighting and shadows it was possibly using some ray tracing effects. Smoke and particles also looked fantastic.

[rainslacker]

@Jester

I'd have to go back and watch the trailer, but I didn't see any raytracing in that trailer. Raytracing is actually noticeable if you know what to look for, and since people aren't really used to seeing it, it actually stands out when they finally do.

This looked like standard ambient and direct lighting sources, without the backed light even implemented yet. The lighting and shadows...what few there were...looked like it wasn't finished, nor were the shaders, and surely given how much Xbox gamers talk about how great Xbox games look, especially on the X, this isn't what their standard is. There is still time for this game, but I question if all these graphics aficionado's really know what they're looking at when they say things like this look next gen.

[Prince-Ali]

cool *thumbs up*... Uncharted still looks leaps and bounds above this... have a nice day kid :-) looooooooooooool

[Lennoxb63]

It's likely a cross gen game. Of course it won't take full advantage of the Scarlett. Plus its open world. Did you just start playing games this gen?

[Prince-Ali]

loool... You're a dumbass you know that...? It's like Red Dead Redemption 2 didn't release last year! Heck this SCENE doesn't even look better than GTA V loooooool! "dId yOu jUSt plAyINg GAmeS thIs gEn?" ¬___¬ looool

OF COURSE IT'S GONNA BE CROSS GEN! HENCE ME SAYING THERES NOOO WAYY THIS IS RUNNING ON SCARLETT HARDWARE! IT'S LIKE YOU'RE STUPID OR SOMETHING looool....

[Lennoxb63]

Looks way better than GTA V. You're drunk. Talk about dumb ass when you asked a dumb ass question.

[Prince-Ali]

@Lennonxb63
Looool are you joking me!? you think environmentally it looks better than GTA V!? loooooooooooooooooool THAT'S QUESTIONABLE! But i LOVEEEEE how you completelllyyy ignored Red Dead Redemption 2!? ahahahahha loool SUPER telling bro loool

[TimmyTurnersDad]

of course, you have an uncharted profile pic............

[Prince-Ali]

yeah i do... so i know what incredible graphics look like :-)

[azizlksa]

If PS5 doesnt bring it, it’ll be just for exclusive games for me. I honestly love the way microsoft are expanding the xbox library with backward compatibility and making the xbox playable on pretty much anything. I think it will be an overall better console than the PS5, but the PS5 will always be better because of the first party exclusives.

[xX-oldboy-Xx]

The best thing a 3rd party game, PS4 will continue destroy xbox because of this E3. They seriously are beyond stupid at ms.Indies and cinematic trailers, then they talk about their next system that releases a year from now. Ridiculous logic.

[Kabaneri]

Microsoft is doing the same thing Nintendo did with BOTW, I wouldnt be surprised if Sony launches the PS5 with TLOU2.

[PhantomS42]

My money would be more on Ghost of Tsushima but a cross-gen TLOUP2 wouldn't surprise me either.

[Spurg]

You won't sell many with a new IP.
The last of us part 2 is a sure bet but I'm gonna place that game in the first half they should be another game that is already established PlayStation franchise.

[Einhander1971]

Halo does not look next gen, I was expecting to be blown away. Gears 5 was expecting more campaign footage. Poor show to be honest.

[PlayableGamez-]

To be fair, Halo infinite is going to be a cross gen game. So it can't be a completely next gen title.

[SyntheticForm]

The end with Scarlett and Halo were exciting, as was Cyberpunk 2077. Everything else was tepid. Really looking forward to Infinite - just hearing that health bar climb up was great.

[HeisenbergX]

Damn not even Halo gets a bit of gameplay.. i really wanted to see something

[CDbiggen]

They'll find some way to screw it up.

[AK91]

Got to admit I liked what I saw a solo Master Chief on his hunt for Cortana (which should’ve been what Halo 5 was about).

My only worry is the fact it’s called Halo Infinite and not Halo 6 or Halo 6: Infinite. I hope it’s not a Destiny Clone like the rumors say

[SyntheticForm]

It doesn't 'seem' like it's going to be a Destiny clone or service game, but I do share your fear.

[Spurg]

'I hope it’s not a Destiny Clone like the rumors say'
Only God knows how you came up with that conclusion.

[FanboySpotter]

Comments are too toxic lol halo looks beautiful, a game that big with visuals like those? Sweet jesus. R.i.p. to whoever is calling this unimpressive. This and cyberpunk are -the- first person shooter mvps
