For both the site and the app
It’s been a treat following alongHalo Infinite‘s development these past few months. After a lengthy period of secrecy, 343 Industries has been making good on their word to deliver regular updatesfor the game,including a gigantic recent tomeof what’s to come for Halo Waypoint (the tracker and app for theHaloseries). Namely, a Halo Waypoint redesign.
The team provided us with a work-in-progress render of the new concept, which is looking much sleeker, and will provide more info for players. Here’s the gist of what they want to accomplish: “We want to reduce overall friction and give everyone as much flexibility as possible to get to the content and features they enjoy the most. One of the ways we are doing this is by elevating the app into a platform of sorts. Within the companion we plan to support not onlyHalo Infinite, butHalo 5and all the latest additions to theMaster Chief Collection. We will also be providing access to all the latest news and have plans to experiment with some social features further down the road, so there’s still plenty cooking even after launch. It’s really a companion app of companion apps that we hope will be your connection to theHaloecosystem on mobile.”
If you’re remotely interested in app or graphic design, the entire thing is worth reading, as it gets insanely in-depth with some of the nitty-gritty of the rework; which will apply to bothThe Master Chief CollectionandHalo Infinite.Even the logo is changing!
