MS allegedly establishes Halo studio

Rumours are beginning to intensify that Microsoft’s Halo studio has established itself as 343 Industries”.



Last year Microsoft Game Studios hired high-profile talent to its internal Halo studio, snapping up the likes of former MGS4 assistant producer Ryan Payton and Bungie’s Frank O’Connor.


The studio hasn’t established its own name or label, for now, yet rumours arising from a patent filing suggest the internal studio is now called 343 Industries.
