Thankfully, just two years later (despite a very rocky launch),Halo: The Master Chief Collectionwould arrive, a place that would eventually become home to all the mainline entries in the Halo series with revolving playlists for the best campaign moments, as well as all the multiplayer maps and modes we could handle, in one place.
Since the launch ofHalo: The Master Chief Collectionin 2014, 343 Industries has supported this glorious hub with new content and quality-of-life updates, right up until the present day. However, reports are now making the rounds that the support has ended, what’s more, that support may have ended in 2023 without any of us realising. The last major update forHalo: The Master Chief Collectionreportedly arrived in July 2023.

If true, that kind of makes sense. After all, Microsoft is a business and businesses are about making money and do not exist for the enjoyment of fans. If 343 Industries did fail in its attempts to implement microtransactions into Halo: The Master Chief Collection with new skins, that backlash may have done unforeseen damage.
It remains to be seen whether all focus from 343 Industries will be onHalo Infiniteor the development of the next game in the series. Only time will tell.Halo: The Master Chief CollectionandHalo Infiniteare available now on PC, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One as well as to subscribers of Xbox Game Pass.
