Staten just recently left Xbox Publishing and Halo's Head of Creative position after work on Halo Infinite.
Staten stated that he is exiting Microsoft entirely and moving on to a 'new adventure.'
Amid swirling rumors about the franchise's future, 343 Industries has put out a statement that it will continue to work in the Halo universe.
French had been working on the franchise since Halo 4 in 2012.
With plans to support Halo Infinite for a decade, it seems like we could see 343 move the game from its proprietary Slipspace Engine to UE5 in the near future.
Ross had hoped to stay on through a winter update, but claims a medical issue fast-tracked her departure from 343.
With the release of a new dev update blog and video, 343 has canceled plans to implement local split-screen Campaign co-op in Halo Infinite.
It looks like you'll need to have your partners picked out for Halo Infinite's campaign co-op launch, or use a service like Discord, the dev suggests.
As it rebuilds certain cut concepts from early Halo games, 343 is aiming to work with modders and make these things available to use in mod projects.
In a recent blog post, 343 Industries shared that it is considering a system to buy Spartan Points and alleviate lengthy grind.
