Halo Infinite Currently The Biggest & Most Expensive Project In Gaming
Of course, there's a multitude of reasons this should be taken with the biggest grain of salt you can find. For one, the source, Xbox Dynasty, doesn't have any history of reliable scoops. In other words, this isn't Kotaku or Wall Street Journal, and that matters.
Second, it's difficult to imagine Microsoft would greenlight 343 Industries to spend over $500 million just in development costs. If the $500 million included marketing costs, that would be one thing, but what the heck could 343 Industries be making that it needs to spend that kind of money?
Three, Halo Infinite is a shooter. Sure, 343 Industries has talked about the game as a step-forward for the series, in fact, there's been plenty of chatter from 343 itself and reports elsewhere hyping up the game's ambition. But we're talking Halo -- it's going to be a shooter at heart. And the most expensive shooters in history -- Destiny, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, etc. -- never eclipsed the $300 million mark, let alone $500 million. Unless this is going to be the most revolutionary shooter ever, it just doesn't make any sense.
That all said, it's possible this rumor is accurate, or at least close to accurate. It's improbable, but it's possible. Alas, you never know with the rumor mill.
Halo Infinite is officially in development for PC and Xbox One.

Mason95 $500 Million Dollars??? I think they're in over their heads a bit.. I really hope this doesn't disappoint the whole community and flop.. I'm really looking forward to this game.
I mean I'm pretty sure they said they created a brand new engine for the game so that probably a big chunk and they also said it will have some rpg aspects to it if I recall correct

I'm really hoping the development costs end up being worth it, otherwise it could be one of the biggest failures in gaming as well.
