A former 343 Industries developer's work experience on LinkedIn showed that Halo Infinite had reached over 30 million players since its launch on December 8, 2021. The Halo Infinite developer additionally included some information on an unannounced game that they were working on, hinting at a new project from 343 Industries.

When Halo Infinite first launched in the holiday season of 2021, Xbox and PC users went online to check out its multiplayer component. The game was included as a Day One title for the Game Pass service, attracting many players. While it may have received favorable reviews, Halo Infinite didn't launch with all of its main features. From the absence of Forge mode to even the campaign being delayed, Xbox and PC players only had the multiplayer portions to play, while 343 Industries would eventually implement the other features. For the last three years, Halo Infinite has received several updates to coincide with the multiplayer Seasons in the game.

As a result of Halo Infinite's continued maintenance, the game has amassed over 30 million unique players, according to Ben F.'s documented work experience on LinkedIn. Ben F., a former Product Manager and Insights Manager at 343 Industries, listed a few details with bullet points about his time with the company. The first bullet point states that Ben F. Led the pre-launch analytic readiness for multiple projects, one that includes Halo Infinite. By being involved in the pre-launch process for Halo Infinite, Ben F. Also worked on the game's adaptability in the gaming market after its launch. This gave him the data to study the trajectory that Halo Infinite was on, calculating that the game had gained "30M+ unique users" throughout his time at 343 Industries.

In addition to detailing the number of unique players for Halo Infinite, Ben F.'s experience at 343 Industries revolved around finding solutions for its multiplayer component to essentially keep customers happy. From gathering data to help drive adjustments toward in-game items to tuning PvP weapons for casual and esports players, Ben F. Was involved in multiple projects.

While Ben F. Does outline his duties at 343 Industries, he ends the published work experience by mentioning an unannounced game. According to the post, he owned the KPI roadmap for an unannounced "internal project" while working with multiple team members. This could hint at a new Halo installment that 343 Industries might be working on, though this is only speculation.

Halo Infinite continues to receive updates from 343 Industries as players proceed to check out the game's newest Season with Reckoning. Most recently, the Combined Arms Operation event introduced a few Halo 3 maps to the game. Looking ahead, Season 5: Reckoning for Halo Infinite will conclude on January 30, 2024.
