After a six-year run of Halo 5 (mostly known as Guardian), which was a bit of a disappointment, the game has now been scheduled to launch not only on consoles but also on PC.

Halo Infinite flight tests have been going on and the fans have had the chance to see a preview of what the game will offer when it is officially released on December 8th.

Players have had their fair share of bugs and problems while testing out the game, and installation was one of the problems.

As gamers need to have a dependable and immersive experience while testing out any game, this could not be reported about the latest release of Halo, and Windows 11 doesn’t do well with it either.

According to John Junyszek, the community manager of 343 Industries, most of the issues PC players are experiencing while trying out the technical previews have been addressed.

I spoke with the PC team, and they confirmed that the improvements to performance, hitching, latency, aiming, and more that we’ve already made internally will give you, and all PC players, a first-class experience at launch.

The technical previews are beta versions of the game. It still needs fine-tuning before it’s officially released and I believe 343 are doing just that.

With its release date set for December 8th, players won’t have to wait for long before they can run the game smoothly.
