This wasn't the first wave of rumors surrounding Halo Infinite that 343 Industries has publicly debunked, and it probably won't be the last due to how infrequently official information is given. To assuage fan concerns, Jarrard wrote a follow-up Tweet that indicates that the developers understand how frustrating it is to not hear anything official about the game for such a long time, and that 343 Industries is in the process of "pulling together a year-end update" that will give some insight into aspects about Halo Infinite that the developer is "overdue on and eager to talk more about."
Ultimately, for now, all we can hope for is that this end-of-year update clarifies a lot about where this next mainline Halo entry is headed.
