Halo Infinite may have been delayed until 2021, but fans of Microsoft's premier first-person shooter series can still scratch their next-gen Halo itch ahead of that game's release with the arrival of Xbox Series X and Series S optimization for Halo: The Master Chief Collection.
Each game in the collection is now playable at 120fps, and at a maximum resolution of 4K on Series X and 1080p on Series S – all you have to do is access your console's TV & display settings and select 120Hz as your refresh rate (resolution on Series X will be determined by your TV's capabilities).
Other enhancements include improved split-screen play for couch multiplayer and co-op, along with the introduction of an FOV (field of view) slider.
