Phil Spencer has made it quite clear at this point that Halo Infinite will be shipping with the Xbox Series X this holiday season. To ensure the Master Chief arrives on time, 343 Industries has called on the assistance of various developers outside of Microsoft. One happens to be Sperasoft, which specialises in co-development and has been supporting the biggest video game companies for over 16 years now.
According to an official PR, Sperasoft is contributing to Halo Infinite's content across "multiple development mandates, developing components of the game and experience" while working closely with its new partners at 343.
“It’s an honor to contribute to the most famous FPS series in the world and to support the next generation of the Halo franchise” – said Denis Larkin, Chief Commercial Officer at Sperasoft – “Our development teams are thrilled with our 343 Industries collaboration on the anticipated upcoming release: Halo Infinite”.
Sperasoft is headquartered in Silicon Valley, has four offices around the world and over 600 staff. It's previously worked on titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Rainbow Six Siege, Star Wars: Battlefront, The Outer Worlds, and more recently, Saints Row: The Third Remastered.
While the timing of this press release might seem a bit odd considering the recent concerns raised about the graphics in the Halo Infinite campaign, as noted by Windows Central, this studio has been involved with the development of the upcoming Halo title since "at least" 2019. One other external developer that revealed it was helping out with Halo Infinite was Skybox Labs back in 2018.

I’m not so sure about “most famous FPS in the world”. Have we forgotten Doom and Destiny?
Anyway, let’s hope for the best that they now manage to tackle the issues that have been noted on their demo.
Cant wait to see the results.
@tatsumi Timesplitters! .... lol.
Half-life might have something to say about it too.
@tatsumi Yeah these names were all very big before CoD took over everything. Now I think Halo,Doom,Half-Life are all in the same rank more or less.
So this company is basically that buddy you call when you are behind on your homework and they help 😂.
I hope they manage and really polish up this game. It looked like it needed a lot of work.
A miss managed load of Balls 🎱
They did a good job the Saint's Row The Third remaster.
Surely they could have just delayed the game? Bringing other teams in this late could be problematic surely.
Maybe not, lets hope not!
@tatsumi
Destiny? Really? 😂 And I have played Destiny for a ridiculous amount of hours. I have played Halo more than Destiny. And Halo has had great campaigns (up until Halo 5). Destiny?
“I don’t have time to explain why I don’t have time to explain.” 😂
I’ll give you Doom. It’s my favorite franchise of all time. But even Doom went through a period where it wasn’t really relevant bc of the development hell Doom 4 (eventually Doom 2016) was in.
Halo has been consistently great since the OG Xbox.
@Jaxx420
Half-Life was pretty awesome. It’s a shame that Valve stopped making games only to focus sitting on their big pile of Steam $. 💰 💴
@KelticDevil very true but can't blame them I suppose the amount they are raking in off it now.
@tatsumi it's a press release, what are they supposed to say? lol
@armondo36 doesn’t mean you have to go full drama. They could simply have said “one of the most famous”. It’s just cringey, but who cares. Maybe that guy is just a HALO fanboy. Which would be good for the development.
