Certain Affinity is ‘deepening’ its relationship with 343 as work begins on new Halo Infinite mode

Aside from a rumoured Monster Hunter style game, Certain Affinity is continuing its development work on Halo Infinite, working alongside 343 Industries and other studios. Today, Certain Affinity announced that it is “deepening” its relationship with 343, and will become more involved in growing Halo Infinite moving forward. 

Certain Affinity has been a key support studio for Microsoft over the years, and that has only grown over the development of Halo Infinite and the Master Chief Collection for PC. Currently, Certain Affinity is expanding and hiring for more developers to work on its Halo-related projects.

We’ve been part of the @Halo franchise for more than 15 years and we’re honored to say we are deepening our relationship with 343 and have been entrusted with further evolving Halo Infinite in some new and exciting ways. Join us on our journey. https://t.co/fApGobYZS3 pic.twitter.com/XSuS7EtLcq

While nothing is explicitly stated here, this likely confirms a recent rumour from Windows Central, which claimed that Certain Affinity is working on a new game mode for Halo Infinite. This new mode will likely be a new spin on the battle royale formula, and Certain Affinity will likely continue to update and maintain it, similar to Activision's setup with Call of Duty and Warzone.

Aside from continuing work on Halo, Microsoft has also reportedly greenlit a Monster Hunter style game to be developed by Certain Affinity. This title has also not been announced officially, but it should be another key addition to the Xbox Game Pass line-up.

KitGuru Says: The blog post about ‘deepening its relationship' with 343 isn't entirely interesting on its own. However, when combined with recent rumours, it does seem much more exciting.
