Do you really want to buy those wonderful cat ears from Halo Infinite, but think the store’s asking price is a little too high? Do you want to pick up that Mister Chief meme bag, but hesitate to empty your wallet for fun? Well, don’t worry – developer 343 Industries has confirmed that Halo Infinite store prices will be adjusted (and lowered) this week.
Jerry Hook, head of design at 343 Industries, explained: “We’ve been closely following discussions around Shop, bundling and pricing since launch,” in a tweet“Using data and community feedback, we’re going to start changing the way we package and price things in Halo Infinite – all from next week.”
This was released on January 15th, and it’s worth mentioning, so we’ll see these changes go into effect normally on Tuesday, January 18th along with the game’s weekly reset.
“Starting Tuesday, the Shop experience will change weekly,” Hook continued in the Twitter thread. “We’ve focused on lowering pricing across the board, offering better value in our bundles, starting to put individual items outside of bundles, and so on.
“We’ll be trying new things for the rest of the season so we can continue to learn and improve in the future. Please keep providing feedback along the way, and I hope to see you all at the CyberShowdown event next week!”
If you’ve paid for those cosmetics listed above — or maybe some other obviously inferior cosmetics — and wondered if you’ll get any sort of cashback or re-reimbursement, 343 and Microsoft haven’t confirmed anything yet.and You’re not the first to wonder about this, anyone.
It’s great to see 343 continue to listen to player feedback and update Halo Infinite accordingly; we’ve seen the studio add a dedicated Slayer mode to the game, as well as more comprehensive changes to the game mode in response to the community. The fact that the studio is also apparently willing to change store prices based on the reaction to the game is encouraging for Halo Infinite’s long-term future.
