E3: Xbox One chief teases Halo Infinite video game

The first look at a new Halo game has kicked off Microsoft's E3 Xbox press conference. Xbox chief Phil Spencer described it as Master Chief's "greatest adventure". But he has still confirm whether Halo Infinite marks the completion of the second trilogy in the sci-fi franchise. In addition to new games, Mr Spencer also revealed his firm had bought several indie studios - including two of the UK's leading developers - to secure exclusive content. He added that the Los Angeles games expo press event - which is still underway - would early looks at 50 games, including 18 exclusives and 15 world premieres. Sales of the Xbox One lag far behind those of Sony's console, which has made it a challenge for Microsoft to convince third-party publishers to restrict games to its platforms.
