Why Halo Infinite can trigger motion sickness
Halo Support says a wider field of view may reduce the tunnel vision or motion sickness that some players feel. The game also applies radial blur during explosions, sprinting, equipment use and cutscenes, and shakes the camera during high impact events. Sprinting adds white speed lines on top.
- Radial blur during explosions, sprinting and equipment use
