The developer, who previously served as game director at Certain Affinity, shared information about the mysterious Battle Royale mode that was supposed to appear in Halo Infinite.
Klopper led the design team working on the ambitious project.
“I believe this mode could have been a game changer for the franchise. We loved playing it and it was a fantastic experience, despite the fact that it was eventually canceled.”
The project, which was reportedly codenamed “Tatanka”, remains shrouded in mystery. Neither Microsoft nor 343 Industries confirmed its existence, and the reasons for its cancellation also remain unknown.
Although a statement coming directly from someone involved in the project sounds credible, it is worth remembering that a creator’s assessment of an unrealized project can be subjective.
