Production notes

Halo Infinite's Head of Design Jerry Hook and Lead Progression Designer Chris Blohm stated that Infinite's first Season being based on Halo: Reach's designs was a beat 343 Industries started after Halo 5: Guardians, starting with Halo: Shadows of Reach and the fact 343 Industries "know people like [Halo] Reach and we knew the story was going to have another Reach beat".[3]
