Halo Infinite looks much better in these 4K screenshots

We have our first look at Halo Infinite, the next game in Microsoft’s giant franchise, in July, and the results were … overwhelming. The graphics and visuals weren’t quite as impressive as you’d expect from a next-generation game (the demo was on a computer “representative of the experience gamers will have on Xbox Series X”), and one vacant – seems enemy has even become the infamous Craig meme. The game was delayed until 2021 a few weeks after the demo aired ‘to ensure the team has enough time to Halo player experience that meets our vision. ”

On Thursday, however, developer 343 Industries shared new screenshots of Halo Infinite in 4K from an evolving computer version of the game, and the graphical appearance much better. We’ve included some of the photos below, and I recommend checking out and zooming in on the full versions on the Halo Waypoint blog – the screenshots are full of detail. (We also included direct links to the full-size images in captions.)

If you look at this, there are a few caveats to keep in mind: we do not know how powerful this computer is, we do not see the game running, and we do not have a good idea how the game looks now to consoles, and marketing images can not always be translated to what you can see in the final product. Still, for Halo fans who were looking forward to it Halo Infinite, these screenshots make it look like the game on the right hardware will look pretty good.
