That trailer has me so hyped right now. Haven't felt that about a Halo game since probably Reach's announcement.

Please 343i, don't let us down!

Not sure who he is. But some MS rep talking to Geoff Keighley pretty much confirmed they are thinking about Halo as a GAAS
Well it's gonna be free on Game Pass so they have to monetize it somehow....

Infinite sounds like a soft reboot. Maybe Destiny-like? As someone who didn't like Halo 5, I really hope they've scrapped their "new trilogy" plans.

i wouldn't mind a kind of soft reboot

the story was starting to get too much politico

best parts in halo are when you were alone... fighting a force that seemed too large... with your fake girlfriend at your side

I think the name is confusing people. This absolutely is Halo 6 - it's just not called Halo 6 because 343 are doing something different with the game design (which we can infer from the engine trailer and the subtitle "Infinite").

This seems like it's meant to be a sequel to Halo 5 but also somewhat of a soft-reboot for the series, maybe.

Fuuuuuuck I'm so hyped for the possibilities around this. Been writing a Halo video but might throw it out to start over.

Stinkles I hope this is CE inspired

At first glance, that is a LOT of white dudes.

Considering the trailer was a glorified tech demo, I can't be too hyped, but at least the environments look great.

It looks kinda like Halo Breath of the Wild ? It looks awesome...
I really think Microsoft is taking some risks with this, it's gonna pay for them. Game must be ambitious af, I think it could be something really special.

The Master Chief reveal was VERY reminiscent of the Kratos reveal from God of War E3 2016. And just as hype too

Definitely looks interested. Halo open world, and going back to a ring would be fucking cool.

They should bring Marty back while they're at it though.

So is this Halo 6 proper or some sort of prologue à la MGS: Ground Zeroes?

We need a name for the recent trend of E3 presentations aimed, at least in part, at touting the company to prospective employees. EA has mastered that and this appears to be something similar. Still, I'm incredibly excited for a new Halo game (even if it's pivoting away from the excellent art style used in 4 and 5).

So I guess they couldn't come up with a proper ending with six so they're going with a reboot? I'm confused, but hyped to learn more.

I thought the Halo 4 and 5 story was trash as much as the next sane person so I am stoked they are ejecting from that tone.

No wonder 343 have been taking so long with this one

I love it! It clearly suggests that this we will play on the full ring with a completely modelled landscape - Bascially what Bungie wanted to do with Halo 1 in the first place. It's great to see, that they went to back the classic art style, can't wait to get a full shot of the new Chief.
Too bad it seems like this will take a while until it releases, sounds like late 2019 or even 2020 from the Halo Waypoint article. But this could be the step in the right direction and I can't wait to see more of it - Hopefully before the next E³

343's art direction since they took over the franchise being dumped is excellent news, it was awful. The little bits we see here look way better.

I'm in the reboot camp as well given the classic art style, not titled Halo 6, etc.

I'm excited to learn more. And with Gears 5 next year, this is 2020 at best.

Based on the trailer I thought this was Halo Battle Royal. Now I'm more curious if this is a direct replacement for Halo 6 or an in between ODST style.

While I am all-in on returning to a classic/hybrid artstyle.. this entire teaser does worry me.

A tech demo 3 years after 5's release? The site even states that they are still hiring people to work on the new engine.

With Gears 5 slotting into 2019 (presumably). I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up a 2020 title. We're already on the longest drought. Pretty sure I was right a while back that Halo '..' was in development hell, seems like a complete U-turn after 5.
Why? They did the engine completely from scratch I think. It seems 343i wants to make this their swan song. Revitalize the franchise like God Of War did this year or Metal Gear Solid 5 did with its open-world approach. I cannot wait to see what 343i has in store for us. Even if I will miss Halo 4/5's Chief armor design.

I want classic Halo back. The old school helmet in the trailer gives me hope but I'm ready to be disappointed again.

Speaking of the new art style, I really hope we get away from the Warthog redesign they've been using the past few games. It's in the trailer, but here's hoping it's a placeholder.

And that's the Cortana chip that he's plugging into his helmet, fuck yea.
Give us proper Halo, fuck the Promethean race, and this new art style is a lot closer to Halo 3 than 4/5.
Thank fuck.

I'm surprised the announcement trailer doesn't have more dislikes. For the amount of time they've been working on this, there should have probably been a little more meat to that reveal.
