Could Halo Infinite Revive Console Esports?Published by forahobby on Thursday, August 05, 2021 Tagged: Gaming, Although it had experience some delays, the most recent technical test of Halo Infinite has largely received a very positive feedback as it was able to be tested across multiple platforms with some great results to boot and being one of the original premiere esports titles on consoles way back before esports had taken off in the way it has, it certainly brings back plenty of excitement too. At one time it could easily be considered the biggest title for Xbox online with a thriving environment with more information to bet with Pinnacle for the upcoming game too it could certainly take off again – but will the game find its new home or PC, or can the consoles capture the game once again leading to a revival of console esports? A big benefit that has come through for consoles recently has been with the introduction of more frames in modern gaming options which in turn will allow for faster displays too – throughout the past, consoles have typically been restricted to a much lower frame rate with 30 being common, and whilst being played on a bigger display with couch gaming options it isn’t that noticeable, it is something that is much less desirable from a competitive standpoint. The recent technical test has shown that the new Series X is able to run the game up to 120 frames per second for certain resolutions, and for those that are looking to play with a faster display this will give a much smoother experience and something that will certainly help push the competitive side of console gaming forward too. One of the downsides to console esports still remains in broadcasting options, however, and although it is becoming easier for consoles to broadcast and share in this way it isn’t yet close to what is available for PC systems as they’ve become the home for esports – if this is something that’s able to be worked on and improved upon too in order to deliver a better viewing experience too. Given there were a large number of console streamers showing the potentials for the game however this may be a concern that can be laid to rest as something that has improved over time. If anything, the game could operate similar to one of the biggest games in the world right now of Apex Legends with cross play accessibility where controller players on console and mouse and keyboard players on PC, whilst there may be a performance gap between the two it is something that has seemingly worked very well, and given the history of Halo on Xbox, it could be the one title that can reinvigorate console esports and lead to growing cross play options.
