Halo Infinite couch co-op cancelled, Season 3 delayed to 2023

Halo Infinite couch co-op has been cancelled entirely, with developer 343 Industries also confirming that Season 3 won’t kick off until next year.

“In order to improve and accelerate ongoing live service development, and to better address player feedback and quality of life updates, we have reallocated studio resources and are no longer working on local campaign split-screen co-op,” 343 said in a statement.

Taking to a developer video, below, 343’s Joseph Staten added that “we have had to make the difficult decision not to ship campaign split-screen co-op.”

Originally planned for a November launch, Season 3 will not kick off until March of next year.

Adding more bad news to the pot, Infinite‘s Forge beta has also been delayed until 8 November and will be released alongside online co-op and mission replay.

Halo Infinite is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X; it’s also part of Xbox and PC Game Pass.

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
