Halo Infinite is bringing on one of the most veteran developers in Halo's history. Developer 343 Industries has confirmed that Joseph Staten--who wrote Bungie's original Halo, as well as Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo Reach--is joining the Halo Infinite team as its project lead for the campaign.

Staten's title at Microsoft is senior creative director, and in that position, he helps numerous developers on their projects. He recently helped finish Tell My Why, which is out soon, and now he will contribute to Halo Infinite. "The team has been working hard realizing our vision for campaign and we're happy to have Joseph's help to get it to the finish line," 343 said in a blog post.

The statement added: "Joseph will be focused on supporting the campaign team's existing, talented, creative leaders and ensuring they have everything they need to create an awesome Halo game."
