Hey fellas, I remember a month ago or so the rumor that November 15th would be our guesstimated release date? Due to the 20 year mark when Halo first was released. Is that still the rough estimated guess we have at the moment? That whole week is open for vacation from my work so I’m gonna take it just incase haha. Gotta make good use of that double experience.
My only concern is during the presentation they said “Holidays 2021” so would that imply that it is between Thanksgiving and Christmas, or am I over thinking it on that?
I’d hope it would be in September or November. This year is the 20th anniversary what better way to celebrate than to release the same day Halo 1 was released.

If it is the first two week of November, that would be tight. September would be awesome but it wouldn’t be “holidays 2021” in my eyes.
I still think that the upcoming Halo Infinite will be coming out on November 2021. The reason why I am saying this is because 343 Industries really want to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Halo Franchise.
When games say holiday they really mean before Christmas (usually) because, marketing wise, they want their game to be bought as gifts for holidays. That’s just my take. I do think it will release on the 20th anniversary. It would be odd if they didn’t.

“Holidays” is just so vague. I was hoping for a solid release date as well so I could schedule some time off but oh well.
My official bet is - “early edition” (whether it be Game Pass or Collector’s edition, not sure" - Friday 11/12/21, multiplayer drop Monday 11/15/21, full release Tuesday 11/16/21

Absolutely they keep mentioning that it is the anniversary.

They said “Day one on Xbox Game Pass” so I don’t know if they will do early editions.

Good point I do neglect the Holidays part, so most likely around Thanksgiving or Christmas. I would laugh it they pulled a Halo 5 and did October and just said Halloween.
I’m looking for the game to be out just in time for people to get it for Christmas, I think it would be cool if the game released on November 15th in honor of the series
As awesome as it would be to do Nov 15th and go full circle on H1 anniversary. On a business marketing standpoint I just dont see that necessarily happening. Xbox loves “Holidays” to heighten sales. the question is are we looking at Thanksgiving? Halloween? Christmas?
