Halo Infinite developer 343 Industries took to Twitter to quell rumours that the studio was no longer in charge of the flagship IP.
This comes after Microsoft announced last week that it would be laying off 10,000 staff, with the bulk of them coming from its Xbox and video games divisions, including many at the Halo Infinite developer (via a blog post))
Reports also began to circulate last Friday that suggested that 343 had been taken off active development of the Halo franchise and that it would only continue to work on the IP in an advisory role (via Metro)
