Halo Infinite was one of the most anticipated titles of last year. And it did open quite well as critics and players gave it a huge thumbs up. Sadly, it quickly became boring for most of the fans despite having great multiplayer gameplay.
It was mainly due to the lack of Battle Royale, according to popular Twitch streamer FaZe Nickmercs. He recently tweeted that Halo Infinite, according to him, has been a disappointment as it didn’t incorporate a BR mode.
Halo Infinite was a flop. Such a shame too, because the potential was through* the roof. Should’ve incorporated a Battle Royale. Would’ve been a net+. More content = More viewership = More everything. All ships rise. Adapt or die.
