343 Industries is still showing Halo Infinite some love with seasonal updates, but what's next for Master Chief? While there have been some rumours here and there, two job listings have now potentially shed some light on what's going on behind the scenes.

On the LinkedIn profile of the former 343 Industries art director Justin Dinges, it's mentioned how he "worked on Halo's next unannounced project" between April 2022 right up until March 2023. It's also led to speculation a new Halo project may have been in the works since at least early 2022.

Adding fuel to the fire is a LinkedIn profile of Ian Slutz, a 343 senior character systems designer. According to his profile, he's been working with Unreal Engine 5. What's interesting about this is previous rumours suggested Halo would utilise Unreal Engine going forward.

Keep in mind it's unknown what exactly this next Halo project is or the scale of it. Again though there's been plenty of speculation and rumours, with one dating back to last October claiming a team at 343 was already working on the next campaign for the series.
