The fact that Infinite will be supported for ten years makes me wonder if 343 has some plans to release something major three or so years down the line, something like a Halo Infinite: ODST. Or something as boring as Halo Infinite: The second part, which is basically just Halo 6 but on infinites engine and accessed through infinite. Most of this will depend on the campaign ending, of course, but I could see something like this happening.
After 5 years of development and a 1 year delay, I tihnk its safe to assume we’ll be getting a full campaign on release. If they do keep up their promise of the 10 year plan, I could see a good 4 or 5(give or take) “big” campaign expansions featuring other characters like osiris and blue team or the arbiter, with maybe 2 or 3 expansions featuring the chief in a main or supporting role. and maybe a couple of short stories lasting about 3 missions here and there, sorta like side quests yknow.
And if we were to get something ODST related I’d prefer it to be it’s own game so it doesn’t suffer from the same stuff that happened to 3 ODST, it being you were just a spartan but slower and no dual wielding. I want the entire game to feel different.
EDIT: but at its core its a multiplayer first persons shooter, so the multiplayer will be always at the focus. they wont neglect the campaign like rockstar does, but a single player game it is not.

I would love to return to a Halo 3 ODST campaign again especially considering joseph staten wrote ODST he could make really likeable characters like in 3

The only problem if it was its own game, we would have to wait a long while for it
They already confirmed Master Chief story expansions post-release

He could do an Alpha-Nine sequel since they’re all Spartans now anyway

it could be something like Halo Wars 2 where it was made by ensemble studios. But what i mean is I want it to feel as an ODST game, not some missions where you look like an ODST but in gameplay you’re master chief again.

We should get more Covanent expansions like a silent shadow elite expansion, or in the comics shadows of reach that would be a cool campaign to visit reach after it has been glassed?
As much as it may be disliked I think the model will possibly be closer to what Destiny does.
small live events with an ‘expansion’ every X amount of months down the line.
while more content is always great I’m not a fan of the model due to its ‘bleed the player dry’ feel with expansions every 3-4 months costing around £45.
id actually prefer a bunch of small world changing free events with 1 maybe two actually meaty expansions a year. Or live events with one ODST sized expansion a year.
I would love a return to ODST.
I would gladly pay for a Swords of Sanghelios, Fireteam Osiris or Blue Team expansion
I think we will most likely see 343 Industries expand the storylines in the Halo Infinite campaign levels. It will be great to see characters like Arbiter, Jerome-092, Blue Team, Fireteam Osiris and ODST Troopers getting their own DLC campaign levels in Halo Infinite.

YES! A swords of Sanghelios expansion would be great. The last time we played as a Sangheli was all the way back in Halo 3 with the Arbiter, it would be great to play him again.
I’d love it if we got a couple expansions focusing on side characters like Blue Team before circling back to Chief’s story. One of the reasons Guardians didn’t work for me is because they threw a bunch of new characters in with blue team and Osiris and did the bare minimum to explore them. I know you get their backstories in books but you can’t expect everyone to read those. I think it the story would play a whole lot better if they were developed in their own stories before tossing them in with Chief who just overshadows them.
I feel like they should go back to expanding on other stories instead of chiefs. Like maybe go back to playing as the Arbiter, Shipmaster, or whoever. It would be nice to dive into covenant lore/story again like in Halo 2.
