The online aspect of Halo Infinite has been on everyone’s lips in recent hours. After 343 Industries announced the title’s roadmap for the next 6 months, the reactions from users have not been long in coming, many showing their disappointment with what awaits the title. However, the final result could have been very different from what was seen, since a new rumor assures that Halo Infinite multiplayer was going to be like Overwatch.
This rumor comes from Chris Ray Guna youtuber who has assured through his official Twitter account that the problems that 343 Industries has been having with Halo Infinite multiplayer are due to a complete reset of the mode in the middle of development, since it was initially thought mimic Blizzard’s multiplayer model.
It would be crazy if it came out one day that a lot of the budget went to an Overwatch clone that they spent half of the dev time making before realizing it wasn’t working and were forced to make this version of Infinite in the last two years of development.
That’d be nuts.

Without a doubt, this change in the multiplayer mode could be one of the reasons that the mode is somewhat “sparse” in content, which is why fans have massively abandoned the title in recent months. However, as we always say, we are facing a rumour, so it is possible that this information is not completely true.
Halo Infinite is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
