343 Industries says that there will be a new “place and way to play” Halo: The Masterchief Collection (MCC) soon.

Halo Infinite, the next installment in the long-running Halo series, is set to release in the fall of 2021 following a delay that pushed the game out of the Xbox Series X/S’ launch window.
