343i have confirmed that they will not be pursuing microtransactions for Halo: The Master Chief Collection

343 Industries recently posted a Community Update to share what’s going on with Halo Infinite and Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Part of the update with Halo: MCC was that back in June there was a discussion going on in the studio about potentially making Spartan Points purchasable.

In case you don’t know, in Halo: MCC you can earn Spartan Points that helps you unlock armor, skins for your weapons and vehicles, nameplates, etc.

It has been confirmed that 343 Industries will not be pursuing purchasable Spartan Points for Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

Instead of having the option to purchase those points they will be making it easier to earn Spartan Points and removing the challenge that many players were facing. Along with that, in-game challenges will also be more rewarding and Double XP Weekends will be making a comeback.

“We will be making further adjustments to Challenges to make them more rewarding, along with bringing back Double XP Weekends.”

How do you feel about microtransactions in games these days?
