Selbst knapp ein Jahr nach Veröffentlichung der Halo: The Master Chief Collection für die Xbox One, arbeitet 343 Industries weiter an der Sammlung und hat einen neuen Patch durch die Zertifikation gebracht, wie das Studio bekannt gegeben hat. Das Update sollte in dieser Woche erscheinen.
Dabei werden unter anderem neue Strafen für Quitter und sonstige Unruhestifter eingeführt. Das kann soweit gehen, dass sie temporär vom Matchmaking ausgeschlossen werden. Wie lange die Sperre anhält, wurde dabei nicht bekannt gegeben. Weitere Fixes und Optimierungen wurden ebenfalls vorgenommen. In Zukunft will das Studio weiter an der Verbesserung des Matchmaking arbeiten.
