Save file not loading - corrupted save file

Game pass + PC - Same here… hitting continue starts a countdown to nothing …. and repeat. You can only start a new game.

no, my game crashed and upon relaunching it launched the windows services page on windows store, I read on the discord channel about the fix which is repairing and then reset the halo infinity game within the app list on settings on w11. That fixed the issue about the windows services page, but importunely it corrupted my save files.

Same thing happened to me.

Commenting to get this attention.

Same problem here. After counting down from 3 trying to continue or load campaign, nothing happens.

Thankfully I was only half way through the intro. Started a new game and so far it’s been saving/loading fine… But, I think I’ll wait for an acknowledgement and fix from 343 before playing more and risking another lost save.

Yep, I’ve had the exact same thing. Very frustrating.

I just run into the exact same problem. Commenting this to scale the issue!

Same issue here. Pc+gamepass. Does anyone know if this happens in steam too? This is really infuriating and dissapointing.

Rigth now, i have an xbox app games uodate… i dont if fix something….

Update: after this, nothing fixed. All still the same.

Can confirm Steam versions DO have this issues, second to last mission my game crashed during a cutscene, refuses to load up save file. Slightly upset and scared to get all the way there again and have my second playthrough corrupted as well

I Found the reason(In fact, not me)
I saw a youtube explains why savefiles are broken. Plugging and unplugging controller in PC cause this glitch. When xbox account log-in window appears, don’t click let’s Go and just close that window. I’ll try this with my third savefile…

It’s working! when re-plug controller, DON"T CLICK LET"S GO BUTTON AND CLOSE WINDOW
I tested and when I clicked LET"S GO button, it changed to 3-person and chief is trapped in deathloop but when i closed the log-in window, my savefile works very well

Whayt happens in the video is exactly what happend to me. I just clicked lets go unknowingly.

Thanks for this man.

I guess there’s still no solution to fix it if it already corrupted your savegame, right?

I’ve got the same issue on XSX… loaded up in third person with no character model, exited the game and tried re-opening it, I’m now left with the same issue of it not loading up.

Hi Spartans,

I’ve got exactly the same issue and the youtube video " The Cause of the Halo Infinite Save File Corruption Bug" doesn’t fix my issue… I lost 1D and 7H of Campaign with all the spartan armor upgrads and a lot of others achievments. What is strange is that I still have all my success, that’s a proof of my campaigns but can’t continue…
Damn I’m crying rignt now !

SPEC : W11 / Game Pass / Xbox Controller

unlocks are tied to your account so multiple save files will all have your audio logs etc unlocked

if your file is corrupted you are already screwed… it overwrites your file save with a buggy file

Seriously fk this st man this was my favourite halo campaign since reach and now I have lost all my progress. I don’t want to be rude to 343 but f*k the programmers that made this save system and most likely didn’t check for issues if this is one. I know they are only human and can’t pull a solution out of their assholes right now but they should let us know that they are looking for a solution for this and fix it asap.
