Farewell, Halo: Saying Goodbye to a Gaming Icon.

The Halo franchise, once a genre-defining gaming superpower, has been treading water in recent years. With the release of Halo Infinite, it's time for Microsoft to let its flagship franchise die with dignity rather than trying to force it to remain relevant. The series has struggled to maintain its relevance since Bungie stepped away from the franchise, and 343 Industries has failed to recapture the innovation and creativity that made Halo a household name. The free-to-play space is fiercely contested, and Halo's smaller user base across just Xbox consoles and PC already puts it on the back foot compared to the market's leading names.
