Halo Infinite – New Screenshots Revealed

343 Industries have revealed some new screenshots for Halo Infinite. In the screenshots, we're shown some campaign WIP screenshots and artwork. You can see some of them below. Halo Infinite was revealed during E3 2018 and has had a bit of a rocky start, with the game being delayed for a year due to the backlash of the gaming community and how the game was looking. Here are some of the newly revealed screenshots From those screenshots, the game does look like it's improved from earlier screenshots.

DEATHLOOP: Explained Video – Break The Time Loop!

DEATHLOOP is basically Groundhog Day or Edge of Tomorrow... But in a video game. In DEATHLOOP you are an assassin trapped in a time loop. In the below video, Game Director Dinga Bakaba of Arkane Lyon (Dishonored, Prey - 2017) tells us more about the incoming game.
